Trailer Hub

AC2717 · 10-25-2011, 08:52 AM

Hi Guys,
well I took the jetski to a friends house about 45 minutes from the lake. When I got there I did a look see at the trailer and well it looks like I smoked one of the bearings. THe normal greenish black grease, was now almost dripping out of the Hub bearing a grey color with some white foam bubbles.

Obvioulsy not safe enough to travel any further.

I would like to change the Hubs or think I should. Question is I have never done it before but seems managable.

It is a 4 lug rim. on a Single space Caravan jetski trailer. Does anyone know how to find out what hub I need. I would like to get sealed ones to not have to worry as much as I do.

Also any advice on how to do it would be great.
