Pregreased trailer bearings

[powerboatr]

A little prevention, is worth many pounds of weight.

Beyond annual, or mileage based inspections and maintenance, I check things out at each fuel stop. Tires for uneven wear, hub temps, suspension bolts etc.

The most something could slip past on a trailer, would be about 200 miles.

Yup
I have a temp gun
Hit all the tires including bus
And hubs when we stop to
Let dogs go .....pee
One thing using trailer that is a huge plus...
It seems last few years more and more road debris is on the attack
Trailer takes those hits
Leaving it's load safe.

So I saw a picture elsewhere or Guy had pre-greased trailer bearings and seal them in bags takes them on trips. I’ve always carried a grease gun and I use bearing buddies and I take tools. I had never really given much thought to the idea of having a sad or multiples pre-greasedearings.
Does anybody do this?

I keep one inner & one outer packed trailer bearings, tub of grease and spare seal.

I convert the trailer bearings to oil bath ones if not already installed by the manufacturer. Far superior to greased bearings.
