My boy and I finished pulling all the tires, hubs, and bearings today. The end result was a grease that had lost most of it's viscosity, three seals had started to leak, and two failed brake magnets. I am so glad I checked everything out prior to pulling the trailer to Oregon...almost 2000 miles round trip.
Question, I need to get the magnets this week. Do they need to be replaced in pairs? Also, will any magnet for a 12" brake system work (the magnets look the same)?
BTW, the EZ-lube only greases the rear bearing on mine...not the front. This is really good to know.
Thanks for all the help and suggestions here.
