[VAC] Re: Re Packing Wheel Bearings
My Dad would have had a stroke if he heard you say that. The grease, over
time, gets grit and metal parts in it. After a while it begins to act more
like a grinding compound than a lubricant. I try to repack my bearings at
least once a year, whether the trailer is moved or not.
It may be overkill...but, I've been bitten once by the IH-40 monster and
don't want it again.
