In this post, we will be going over how to grease a Bearing Buddy lubrication system on your boat or caravan trailer. It is important that you do this the correct way without blowing out your hub seals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I have been using the Bearing Buddy grease system for over 20 years on all of my trailers. It was good to see that when I purchased my last Jet-ski trailer, it came pre-installed with marine Bearing Buddies. They do have a great name in the trailer industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first thing you will need is some high-quality, marine grease<\/a> which is designed for trailer wheel bearings. You will also need a grease gun with a zerk fitting flexible hose<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Start by removing the grease cartridge end caps and insert the tube into your grease gun. Prime the grease gun and bleed out any air pockets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now jack your trailer up one side at a time enough so you can rotate the wheel. This will enable the grease to flow completely around the bearing without any air pockets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
