OIL BATH HUBS LEAKING

[mofish]

One of my oil bath hubs is leaking on my Stratos Trailer! Is there a repair kit you can get?

I replaced the trailer couple of years ago and got a newer Stratos Trailer I got no info with the trailer just wondering if any one knows what kind they are and how to fix the problem? The caps on the ends are almost black so you can't even check the others to see how much oil is in them!

Any help please?

C&O Marine folks can you help?

Yes you can replace the seals in the hubs. This is probably what is leaking.

Give C&O a call. 1-888-868-0361 and tell them what you need. I don't know if you can buy just the seals, or if there is actually a rebuild kit. Carol should be able to hook you up.

I would contact UFP for the upgraded system... Mine leaked too and it's not the hub seals. It's the o-ring in the cap with the sight glass. They did away with the o-ring and went with a rtv red silicone on the install. Mine have not leaked since I switched mine out. Call Lyn at UFP 800-854-1905 ext.107. Great guy. Most likely you have the gold series>>> http://www.ufpnet.com/Axles.htm

Mike,

You are right about the o-ring being the culprit. For whatever reason I referred to it as a seal.
