Wheel bearings When to repack
Is repacking based on miles or time. I repacked them about a year ago and we have only traveled about 3000 miles this year. Just trying to give my back a break if possible. Thanks Ray

Pack my own bearings every 3 yrs 20000 miles, lots of grease in the bearings, kind of a waste of time except there always seems to be worn out magnets, or wires frayed in the drums from the junk put on.
Personally, I had my fill of grease working on a farm, so let the local trailer shop do it. It's a whole lot faster and I know they'll do a better job than me, because they do it every **** day. :-) All new bearings and seals, packed with grease and brake adjustment for about $250, of which about $130-140 was parts. :-)
