How To Grease the 8 on 8 Inch Trailer Hub Assembly Part AH60880FCOMP
Question:
Is there an alemite/grease fitting installed or a hole tapped to install one?
asked by: Andy
Expert Reply:
The Trailer Hub Assembly part # AH60880FCOMP will be lubricated by packing the bearings with wheel bearing grease part # L11380 and a bearing packer part # L70025. That said, there is not any sort of grease fitting on this hub or any trailer hub I am aware of for that matter as this is just not common practice. If a grease fitting is present, it will be located on the end of the spindle but this is only for select axles. The majority of older trailers will be lubricated by hand.
