Enjoy John, and have a great time. Hope the weather is good for you.

Great time, thanks! Weather was perfect. Had to turn on the heat a couple nights as temps dropped to
low 50's. Not one drop of rain once the music started on Wednesday.

And, most importantly, didn't break anything on the RV. But...I think a wheel bearing seal is
leaking so will get the bearings repacked (or replaced) and resealed tomorrow.


Consider installing bearing buddies along with the seals. If you
want the job done right do it yourself.

Have a great time, John!


What could be more fun sitting in a hot, dusty, humid, rainy field for a
few days, alternating with living out of a trailer?


Jealous? Haven't done anything fun lately?


Sitting around a hot, dusty, rainy field for a few days, alternating
with living out of a trailer is...fun? Maybe it reminds him of his glory
days at Ft. Leonard Wood. Besides, we're leaving town in a few days. No
trailers involved.

When you're signing in at the Motel 6, and a bedbug walks across the form, just realize it's looking
for your room number!


A little spittle on my screen wont hurt if I wipe it off quickly,

You're asking the right person about spittle. The John drools and spittles all over himself non stop.

Bearing Buddies. Best invention since the wheel.

Now thats the kind of trash talk Fat Harry uses. I think you'll

I said earlier, I just pulled the hubs on my boat trailer after 25
years of being totally ignored except a little shot of grease in the
bearing buddies and they were fine. That is after being dunked in salt
water several times a year and then just parked.

Heh, why should land cruising be different than boat cruising? The
definition of boat cruising is fixing things in exotic places. And of
course "BOAT" stands for Break Out Another Thousand.

RV's aren't quite as bad. But they do require a fair amount of maintenance. A new member of our
camping group had just bought his 5th wheel trailer and brought it to a campout for the first time.
He'd bought a rig that had been sitting on the dealer's lot for a few years. His refrigerator wasn't
working. I asked if he had the manual and he had to go look. When he came out he said he wasn't
'mechanically oriented'. I told him he'd better get mechanically oriented, or rich, or an automobile
and stay in motels.

I've been very happy with the work done by the shop I use, and haven't gotten brave enough to do the
job in the driveway. Bearing buddies are installed. I try to get them repacked every two years, but
slipped this year.

That goes double for boats. We just had to pay a mechanic to fix a
minor but annoying oil leak on the port engine. It required special
tools, parts and skills (two new high pressure hoses) or I would have
tackled it myself. After waiting in the job queue for several weeks
we finally got it fixed. Total tab? About a boat buck.

On a trailer that does not hit the water, probably not an improvement. I
have Vault Hubs on my trailer. No bearing problems since new. Regreased
them two years ago when I had to replace a hub/disk when a break pad came
apart.
