    Ranger Tin Trailers



    A friend just called me and said there is a National recall on the Ranger RT line of trailers.
    Basically bearing problems and get to a Ranger Dealer pronto!
    I just bought a rig and brought it home late last week.
    Does anybody have additional information? Supposedly the recall was on Facebook. I personally don't do Facebook and I'm looking for additional information.

    Reads all trailers 2020 through 2022. Looks legit to me.

    I think the bearing nut wasn’t tightened to the right torque spec

    Anybody know what is torque spec?
    on my old trailer when doing bearing work, I just jacked it up, spun the wheel and tightened the nut until you felt some drag on the wheel.
    worked for the last 32 years but have never seen an actual spec on bearing nut torque
