I think what he is referring to is called berneling where a bearing develops flat spots. This happened a lot back in the 70 when cars were shipped on trains.

Thanks RBPerry!
If it was still happening I would replacing my bearings quite frequently along with thousands of other RV owners here in the great white north. Up here our trailers sit for 7-8 months out of the year.
