Wheel Bearings Packed? Yearly Maintenance
How often do you have the wheel bearings packed on your trailer? And do you take it in for a yearly maintenance inspection?

Keeps pressure on the grease to keep the water out.
No use for an RV trailer. JMHO
If you would read at least two of my posts you would have seen OR Equivalent! OK-NEV-R-LUBE.
Never Lube

No need to pull the hubs to repack the bearings OR replace the seals when checking the brakes.
Are you referring to the never lube or the EZ lube? I'm not a big fan of the permanently sealed bearings. No matter what the warrantee claims, I've replaced enough hub assemblies on vehicles for them to leave a bad taste.
If you're referring to the EZ lube bearings, I'm not sure the cost of converting the existing bearings over is worth it, at least not to me.
That being said, whatever works for you is best for you. That's why they make vanilla and chocolate ice cream, right?
