    Good job 👍. Put some lubricant on that hub gasket!!! Just like you would on a oil filter gasket ! A little grease on your lugg bolts will be good also! Great video buddy!!!

      It doesn't hurt to check, especially if you haven't in a couple of years, although your cargo trailer isn't exposed to salt water

    Thanks for the video bro. I have an old trailer that does not have caps at the wheel hub. So, you mentioned that you bought at an EZ Trailer store. Is that store on line or is it somewhere in the Bay?

    • @Fishing247
      @Fishing247  3 роки тому

      The store is located bin San Jose corner of Moorpark and Winchester.

    You can leave the oil in there for 3-4 years unless it's milky then change it out. Oil is much easier than grease. I would say to put a little oil on the gasket before screwing it back on so it can seal better and maybe clean the bolt before you screw it back in otherwise good job!

    • @Fishing247
      @Fishing247  Рік тому

      Thanks. I will do the right way next time.

    Can you convert regular trailer hubs into oil bath hubs?

    • @Fishing247
      @Fishing247  3 дні тому

      I am not sure. You may need to check Google or UA-cam. I like oil bath hub better too. Thanks for watching.

    Just read all of the comments after watching your DIY vid. Respectfully, I’ll continue taking my trailer to an expert for such maintenance. Somewhat mechanically challenged, I see too many ways I can screw that up.

    • @Fishing247
      @Fishing247  3 роки тому

      Lol. I understand. I did screwed up by putting the tire inside out. A viewer mention and I corrected it. Thanks for your comment.

      Thanks for good advice. I always do that with car and forgot with the trailer. Serious mistake. Lucky nothing happened. I need to go through the safety protocol from now on thanks for watching and commenting.

    DO NOT put oil or grease on wheel lugs! I would put oil on the spindle where the rear seal goes over. I would also put oil on the aluminum cap's rubber o-ring.

      Thank you brother. I just checked the tire and it was inside out 🤣. The air valve is on the insides. Thanks for pointing it out. I will redo it tomorrow. Thanks again for your comment. 🙂

    Those bearing need to be packed with marine grad bearing grease. Your bearings are dry and will over heat causing them to seize and fail. I carry a new hub with packed bearing with me on every trip. Learned the hard way.

    • @Fishing247
      @Fishing247  3 роки тому +6

      Hi Scott, I contacted EZ trailer dealer before I did the oil change. They told me that don't grease the bearings because it is the oil bath hubs. So I only cleaned checked the bearings and replaced the oils.

  • @TiredAmerican247
    @TiredAmerican247 3 роки тому +1

    You should replace you hubs with the easy grease hubs. WAY better.

    • @Fishing247
      @Fishing247  3 роки тому

      Thanks for your advice. I will look into it. Why grease hub is better than oil bath hub? Thanks.
