Just a reminder that pulling your trailer bearing maintenance should be done sooner rather than later!
I chose to make one more run and THEN I was gonna do it and paid the price. New bearings, hub and redressing a spindle in the driveway immediately on my return home... My son said the trailer wheel is smoking, I figured I had a break hanging, raised the axle and :eek:!

Anyway, a gentle nag to do it when you can choose to, and not when you HAVE to! (And cheaper too with only the cost of some grease and seals!)

Have FUN!

Not a nag for me. Come Spring, just hook up and go. :)

Your bearings should be part of your winterization routine. If you had any moisture or condensation in the hubs when you put it away, chances are good that you?ll have rust on the bearing surfaces in the Spring.
