A few years ago, I bought a used boat and trailer from an older man. He had it serviced regularly by a dealer. All seemed well, no problems. One day I jacked up the trailer and spun the wheels. One wheel had a small rumble while spinning, I broke it down and found one roller in a bearing had broke in half, and was just tumbling around in there. I installed new hub kits, all is great now, and I have a reference base line. No substitute for a good in depth inspection.
Perfect timing for this video!
Good video
👍👍👍. Thank you
That bearing looked like it could have used a little more grease as well as the tightening you gave it.
You're probably right. The customer claimed he had just had the bearings repacked. While removing the tire to do the welding work I figured I'd check the bearings for being loose. All four were too loose
Why would a rubber cap fall off while driving? This just happened to me on a peterbuilt. Never seen it happen in my 4 yrs driving semi
I have often wondered that... I think road debris flips up once in a while knocking off those caps.

Thats a good point. I failed to mention to make sure it's securely on jack stands
