Tip/ friendly reminder for boat owners

Just wanna remind/inform boat owners to inspect your trailer bearings and seals before everytrip and to remove and repack your bearings before every season. All too often you see boats and trailers pulled off the side of the road with shot bearings.

When hauling a trailer for miles the bearings heat up the hub, spindle, bearings, and axle. When you arrive at the lake the warm or hot components get submerged into water to luanch the boat. Shrinkage occurs differently in these parts and it is COMMON for water to sneak past the seals and further corrode your bearings.

Bearing buddies are awesome and well worth their price. However thier only function is to compress grease into the hub. It will leak and fail. They are not a fail safe, or lifesaver product.

Changing bearings and seals only cost 30 dollars or so. If you haven't checked your bearings or repacked them in over a season, do your self a favor and do it. Before you get stuck on the side of the road calling a tow truck for hundreds of dollars, waiting on them for hours.

PM me or reply if you need help. Even the most novice mechanic can do this within an hour.


While your at it, check trailer lights and lower unit oil change.

GREAT TIP MY BROTHER!!!!!!!!

Nothing can ruin a trip like a burnt out bearing,in the middle of nowhere,,on a holiday weekend,in the middle of the night,,,unless of course you have HILLBILLY friends,in BAKO,,,lol,,,,,<inside joke<<<<<---------------------<<
