I bought a new snowmobile trailer with oil bath hubs a few yrs ago and asked the dealer what I needed to do to maintain the hubs... he said "you don't need to do anything" I was used to pumping my bearing buddies full of grease every time I pulled the boat or snowmobiles and I had a hard time believing that they did't need any maintenance at all. Then he said "these are the same type of hubs they use on semi -trailers and they recommend you change the oil ever 250,000 miles." I don't think I'll put that many miles on my boat trailer even in several lifetimes.
Grass,
change the hub oil every 250,000 miles that is insane anyone saying that, if they could go that long without leaking out there would still be no oil in there it would be just sludge! |
