How To Determine Bearing And Grease Seal For 2000 Starcraft Popup Trailer
Question:
I have a year 2000 Starcraft by Venture pop up trailer 2403 or 2406- not sure. Im going to repack the wheel bearings but cant determine which grease seals I need to replace on the inner bearing side. Can you help me now which are the correct ones on your site? Also, Im uncertain which of the wheel bearing greases that you offer are good for my trailer. Thank you,

Since there is no standard set of bearings for a trailer you will have to do one of two things. You can pull a wheel and hub and check the bearings you have on one spindle. The numbers will typically be found stamped on the side of the bearings as shown in the attached photo.
If you cannot find the numbers you will need to use calipers like part # PTW80157 and take some measurements in the locations shown in the photo. You will also need to measure the inside bore of the hub on your trailer.
After getting either the numbers off the bearings or the measurements you can let me know and I will be glad to make recommendations that will work for you.
For bearing grease we have a couple options. You can use grease from a 16-oz can like part # L11380, or you may want to use a bearing packer like part # L70025 which would require a grease gun like part # 30-800 with cartridges of grease like part # L54FR.
