Sorry to get off topic but I feel like the question was answered by a fair amount of people. I just had a bearing go out on my boat trailer while coming home from the cabin the other week. How often do people change out/grease their bearings. Do I have to change them if I am re-greasing a lot?
Part of the answer depends on how often you trailer. Some people will say they last 20 years, but not tell you they only trailer 3 times a season. How far you drive and how often will determine when and what kind of maintenance is needed. I check my hubs regularly and add grease at the start of the season. I do a full replacement every 3 seasons. I trailer about 40-50 days a season, average distance is 30 miles one way. I haven't had any issues. YMMV.
I know some guys who just don't want to worry about it and pay to have the full replacement done every year. |
