| Yearly repack and mid July checks on my trailer bearings and seals since 1984, the last time I had an issue. It only took one time with bearing buddies, and a bad time on the way to Canada then. Ever since, I service them yearly and check for temp at every gas stop.
If done properly, your hubs should be good for at least one season. On the new EZLube hubs, I just give them a shot every other month during the season to see if any water comes out.
I think the biggest issue with burning up hubs is over-tightening the bearings when they are serviced. Just a little snug eventually turns into hot running bearings, and seal failure. | |
