Steve Bearing Buddies are junk. Remove them, and put on normal bearing Caps.. All Bearing Buddies do is allow the grease to be pushed out the inward side of the axle by the Bearing Buddies when you overload them too much. I've seen this *happen repeatedly. Pack the bearings by hand, and you will not have this happen again....that is, after you replace the inner seals on your axles that have been blown out by over packing the bearings using the aforementioned " Bearing Buddies". Only if you're a complete moron that can't grasp the instructions. Oh, wait, I forgot who I was replying to. They probably aren't the best choice for you. The above post coming from a Lake Lanier idiot who doesn't have, or never owned a trailer. Go back to Rainbow Country and talk up your home-made swill.You know more about that than you do about trailers, asswipe Dwarf Army Grunt. There's no reason to believe Loogy has a boat or boats on Lanier.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - This from the biggest liar in rec.boats! |
