In the real world...Questions about adjusting your brakes on towables (trailers and 5th wheels) How often do you do it? Do you adjust your brakes and call it good, or do you pull your hubs to...

If the trailer never sits and never goes in the water, bearings should go 25 or 30 thousand miles. If you let it set for 3 or 4 months the bearings might not last 2 years. I adj the brakes when they don't work like I want, maybe every 4 or 5 years, but never replaced a set on a TT. At work we changed the electric brake shoes on the trailers about every 30,000 miles, some salesmen were hard on equipment.
I'm curious, why would bearings go bad quickly if a trailer sits for 2-3 months? Never heard of that before.
