Can't hurt Randy. If the load is removed from the pins grease should flow more evenly to areas of load on the bushings. I have read here where some support the coach under the bogie bracket/remove the air line and move the bogie to opposite ends of travel range while lubing. When I rebuilt my bogies I saw areas of severe wear and areas which looked practically new. I'm guessing grease never made it to the load areas frequently enough.

The only time the bogies move about the pins is when you go over a bump or raise or lower the vehicle, right? When greasing the bogie is there any benefit to raising or lowering it to help move the grease around the pin?
