Vault Hubs

You may or may not have a grease seal that needs to be replaced. I would wipe away and clean the grease from the rear grease seal area. Then keep an eye on it next few trips. It says right in the Vault manual that a slight weeping of hybrid grease can be seen to lubricate the seal. I have had this happen before. I just wipe it clean with a rag and watch for more leaking every time I have the boat off the trailer. I have cleaned them and have been good and cleaned them and they keep leaking. If they continue to leak I pull the hub and replace the grease seal and usually the wear ring as well.

I have Vault hubs and I noticed yesterday that there is grease slung on the outside of one wheel. It's a 2022 trailer and I was really surprised to see that in such a new trailer. The center plastic is sticking out about 1/4" on both hubs. Any ideas?

Needs a new seal. Possibly a wear sleeve also.
