[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 442344, member: 13599"] are we correct to assume that you are changing both hubs and not just one ? again, get the proper seal for the back side of the hubs and ensure they fit well. for your style of trailering, you will be very happy and safe with the less expensive "non-zerk" hub and it will serve you well. just inspect every season and add grease as necessary. the hub caps are pressure fit - gently ease them into position with a block of wood and hammer. remove them the same way. tap-tap-tap. I saw somewhere that the rule of thumb for cleaning out the hub and doing a total grease change is every 5 years. more often if you are a tournament fisherman or pull a utility trailer up and down the interstates at break neck speed. good luck !!
