My 1998 ranger trail trailer has plastic center hub covers that only come off if you remove the wheel. Behind that in the middle of the spindle is a small hole that I am supposed to stick a grease gun needle into to grease my new bearings. My mechanic just installed buddy bearings on this and did away with the center caps.
I questioned how the grease could possibly enter the little hole and "get in there" and was told it will! I called Ranger and they strongly recommended against this. Ranger said to put it back to original and remove the tires a few times to grease them. Anyone have any fix for this so that I may grease the bearings with out removing the tires every time? or are the bearing buddies good enough to do the job?
Thanks for any help, I leave for a Lake Vermilion fishing trip in 3 weeks and just want to know if the bearing buddies are alright for this application.
