Default trailer bearings

Bearing buddies will be installed. What is the proper way to fill them. I
thought you just pump in grease until the indicator shows full.

Three seasons is about right for changing the impeller, especially if
the motor has not been operated in shallow, sandy waters, as inshore
fishermen often run their motors.

Is your dealer going to install Bearing Buddies or something similar on
your trailer bearings? They're cheap, and they'll let you keep your
bearings packed with grease. Have someone show you how to fill the
Bearing Buddies so you don't blow out the seals on your trailer axles.
It's a one-minute lesson.

No...you have to be careful and not overfill, because you can blow out
the seals on the opposite side of the bearing.
