Re: Newbie question about having bearing buddies installed
With, or without Bearing Buddies, <br /><br />I try to jack up one wheel at a time on the various traiers around the yard,<br /><br />at least annually and even every couple of months on the ones used regularly,<br /><br />and spin the wheel and listen. <br /><br />A silent bearing with about an eight to a quarter inch of wheel play (at it's edge)is good too.<br /><br />Any growling, too little, or too much play and I take it apart and find out why.<br /><br />It's so much better than on a Sunday on the side of the freeway after the wheel melts the end of the spindle then heads out into the bushes or ditch somewhere.<br /><br /><br />By the way, as important as keeping grease in, it may require a double lip or even triple lip seal. <br /><br />You might want to consider an RV, or trailer shop they should stock it all.
