Default trailer bearings more info.

Your trailer will be fine. I'm guessing you have bearing buddies with a
grease fitting on each wheel. You should give them a little grease a couple
times during the boating season. I usually do it the same time I'm hitting
the outdrive fittings. Preferably with marine grease. If you hear any
rumblings or grinding from a trailer wheel it should be checked. Good luck
with your new boat, I hope it serves you well.

Thanks for all the responses. I will try to answer the questions to give
you more to go on.



I'd ask some more questions before I gave advice on replacing the

bearings.
Like how old is the trailer?

four years old

Where did the previous owner use it?
short trips to put in

How
often was the trailer and boat used.

boat has 115 hours on it


How many axles on the trailer?
tandem axel

How
big is the boat?

20 foot Celebrity


Was it used in fresh water or salt water?
fresh water

Thanks.



All he asked was if he was going to have a problem because of the grease

he
used. And all of you tell him to replace the bearings.
