Wheel Bearing Grease

[brunomisty]

What kind of wheel bearing grease do you use to repack your bearings ?
Do you use a brand name like Mobile or a off brand like Coastal

Thanks

Uh, 100,000 mile no grease bearings from mor-ryde??

Lefty,

Did you replace your trailer's bearings with the mor-ryde ones? Was that expensive?

That's next on my agenda. One of the users here had it done..new upgraded axles, hydraulic brakes, super-duper 100,000 mile between repack bearings.

About 5,000$.

I don't know if I'm the one that you are referring to, however, we did have the full Mor/Ryde deal done to or 3055 last fall. New IS suspension, hydraulic brakes and 100,000 mile neverlube bearings. Yes it was around $5000, but the peace of mind and better ride and better breaking is worth it.
