I’ve read them all. Repack bearings every year and “I haven’t looked at them in 10 years.”

I have repacked every year for the last 7 years and found water on a couple.

Last week 30 miles from Rhinelander the whole shooting match goes off into the forest.

There was no visible grease on the spindle and a bearing was welded to it. Any ideas how this could have happened.

Has anyone experienced the same with about 3000 miles max on the trailer and meticulous repacking and inspection?

Axle is toast, hub and tire still rolling in the forest.

God blessed me that it didn’t happen in a crowd.
