Tips on How to Pack Trailer Bearings with Grease
Question:
I have never repacked the bearings on my 2004 coleman Yuma pop up. I thought they were permanently sealed. Can you direct me to a website that will help me re-pack the bearings? thank you.

I will be happy to help. First, there are some bearings that are sealed and do not need to be lubricated. They are called cartridge bearings and are very different than other bearings. It doesn't sound like that is what you have though.
I have linked a video to the right that shows how to pack trailer bearings. Be sure to remove all of the old grease prior to reinstalling the bearings.
There are also products you can use so as to avoid packing the bearings by hand such as the bearing packer # L70025. Then you could use a grease gun such as # L30416 and grease # L11390.
