Wheel bearing maintenance interval
I’ve seen posts that say to repack every 12 months or 12,000 miles...since I only tow a little over 1,000 miles per year, do really have repack every 12 months? Does the wheel bearing grease degrade...

Just to be clear about the EZLube system. You really can't overgrease the bearings with this system if it is working correctly. The grease will go in the zerk, through the rear bearing, through the front bearing, and out the front of the axle.
As to whether the EZLube system is really needed is a moot point, i.e. up for debate. If the bearings are greased properly, you don't really need to add grease until the next time they are checked. I was a proponent of the EZLube system, but have decided that it really isn't necessary. All JMO of course.
