What Type of Grease Cap is Recommended for Fitting Trailer Hub with Grease Fitting on Spindle
Question:
Hey Guys and Gals!! My question was in part answered by Jameson C. but this is part 2 of the same question. Now that I have the right size of the Bearing, is Buddy bearing the right choice for my PWC trailer? Looking at the end of the axle there is a grease plug that of course feed grease to the front and rear bearing of my hub. My question without trying is can this plug be removed? how the Buddy bearing system will feed grease thru this plug? or DC200L-DCRP is my choice? Thanks

You have an EZ lube spindle so you would not need to use a Bearing Buddy. If your hub bore is 1.98 inches (where the cap installs into the hub), then the correct cap for your application would be the part # DC200L-DCRP that you referenced.
The rubber cap of this cover can be removed to allow you access to the grease fitting you mentioned.
