How many strokes??
2011 Jayco 321RLTS, greasing the hubs (bearing buddy style with zerks under the caps) Been way to long since I have done that. No time to go to the way to busy dealer before a trip. Stroke till grease...

Are they actual Bearing Buddies or are they EZLube axles? If an EZLube, then jack each wheel up, grease until you hear air crackling out of the seal, then stop. Spin the wheel while doing so. I did that for 13 years on my old Komfort and never blew a seal or even leaked grease. When I did have the bearings and seals replaced (with USA Timkens) after about 10 years, the shop said the bearings were still tight, virtually unworn and could have been re-used. I opted to replace them all and continued my "normal" practice for the next 3 years, until I sold it, with no issues. YMMV...
