Can Bearing Buddies Be Used On Utility And Travel Trailers
Question:
Are Bearing Buddies only made for boat trailers or can they be used for utility trailers and travel trailers? Some people say they are for boat trailers only!

Expert Reply:
Bearing Buddies like Item # BB1980A-SS are normally used in marine applications because they keep water and dirt out while ensuring enough grease is in the hub. However, Bearing Buddies are good for all kinds of trailers but will not work with EZ Lube spindles. I am attaching a link to our available inventory so you can get the right size for your trailer.
Send me your bearing size (stamped on them) and your trailer axle weight capacity (label will be on axle) and I will make a specific recommendation.
I am also attaching additional information and videos for you to check out.
