Bearing Buddy?

I have a 2011 KZ Sportsmen Classic 16BH and those entry level TT (even the new 2015 models) doesn't come with EZ-LUBE axle or similar axle...

I want to add Bearing Buddies grease system on the axle and I'm wondering if it's a good product? Is it a reliable way to grease and maintain bearing?

Thank you!
  • Bearing Buddies will work just fine on your TT. Same basic principle as the EZ Lube hubs with the added advantage of the spring loaded piston to keep a positive pressure on the bearing grease. I had them on my boat trailers and now have them on my landscape, cargo, and TT.
  • As I understand it, Bearing Buddies are primarily used on boat trailers to keep the cold water from getting into the warm bearings....nothing to accomplish on a TT.
