What is so different with RV wheel bearings that they have to be packed at least every year or two. My truck and car does not require this yearly maintenance, why does the RV axles??
I have a flat bed cargo trailer (do have a fifth wheel also). Anyhow my flat bed had been to many states since I never hesitate to loan it out to friends. Soooo after reading all about the bearings and the warnings on this board, I decided to pull the wheels, change the seals, and repack. That was after at least ten years. They looked good as new. :h
Each to his own.
