Default Trailer bearings....

Did a repack for a buddy who nearly had a wheel come off after first trip of the season.

Figured I'd just throw it up here. It doesn't take much to make them fail. Water sitting in the hub over winter did its toll.

Curious as to what grease everyone here is using???

I try to get Timken Bearings. Made in USA. Those Chinese ones burn up quick.

Just did mine last week. Don't know the brand but used synthetic grease. This was the first time changed. The trailer is 4 years old.

Will be pulling my own hubs this week. Agreed Timken is the only way to go. Difference from China made bearings is def noticeable.

Still looking at grease. Going syn route just unsure of brand.
