| Safe T or EZ-Lube. One in the same. I'll try to post a pic.
Too simple of an explanation. There's a bit more to it. After putting the trailer up on jackstands, I remove the wheels from the hubs. Then you'll have to remove the metel end cap. I do this by gently tapping a flatblade screwdriver between it and the hub, rotating as you go. Twist the screwdriver to get the cap off, and put to the side. Wipe off excess grease, and expose the spindle nut and retainer. Be the tab that keeps the retainer on, and remove it. Then remove the nut, and the hub will come off. Clean and repack the bearings, clean the hub and metal end cap, and install new seal. Just like normal hub and bearings. Before reinstalling hub, give the zerk a few shots to remove any old grease in the axle passages. Clean axle, and you're ready to put it back together. Not too bad a job, I can do my tandem axle trailer in about an hour.
