    I've had a car hauler for the last couple of years, and finally got off my butt last spring and regreased the wheel bearings. It's something you want to do every year - if you have EZ lube, I personally choose to alternate, use the zerk one year and then disassemble and repack the next.

    Anyway, I figured a writeup would help other people with trailers out: http://did-it-myself.com/repacking-trailer-wheel-bearings/

    enough to go over stuff
    Good to know. I just use the zerk fitting but I should probably tear it apart when I have time
