Quick question. I repacked the bearings on my trailer. I am wondering if I should have completely filled the hubs with grease before installing the bearing buddies? I packed the inner bearing, put on the grease seal, then put the hub on the spindle. Next I squirted about 5 or 6 pumps of grease in the area by the inner bearing, then I packed the outer bearing, installed the outer bearing, washer, and spindle nut. Then I put on the bearing buddy and filled with grease until the plate moved a little. I did get a little air that came out around the edge of the bearing buddy plate. On a side not has anyone used the tie down super lube hubs?

We're usually fully stocked but you caught me on a bad night!
Tuesday night is usually "board meeting" night if you know what I mean. Stop in and have a tasty beverage some Tuesday night after these holidays are over and things get back to normal.
Im sure I will be back soon my kids go through the pork burgers pretty quick. Suzy knows who I am she can help ya. Cant ever turn down a nice cold Busch Light.
Nice to finally meet you tonight. Make sure you tell me who you are again next time you come in. I will probably forget.
Let me know when you are dropping in again and I'll make sure we have more of those beverages around!
