I don't know. Manufactor says that if they go out then it was a defected hub and they will replace for free. Says it in the manual. Boats ok, the fish is good looking! LOL

And a legal side arm cause there are alot of nuts around NOLA

Don't forget to make sure your insurance paperwork and boat/trailer registration is up to date and accessible.

got GOJO.. gerald and i got everything listed Big Dog...

please do not put never -seize on your lugs
it does not let the nut torque or should i say over torque and you will have problems the most i would do is wd-40 ihave been a hyd crane mech for 15 yrs ask any auto mech ask tem at auto zone you are asking for trouble just my my 2 cents

i got to thinking about that myself.... i dont think i was going to do that in the first place... my nnuts are tight... lol LUGNUTS !!!

We pulled a 21 ft. Proline deep-V boat to Perdido Key, Fla. every July.
I mounted a new spare on the trailer and greased the bearing buddy's before we left La. and before we left Fla. I stopped every 3 hours to pitt stop and check the hub temperature. Never had a problem. If I were you, I would bring a spare bearing buddy in case one falls off. I think they come in pairs.
Also check your springs and the bolts that go thru the springs. Just in case they are rusted out. And check the condition of the hub to axle weld for rust.

Ok well maybe Never-Seize was a bad example. I personally have never had any trouble. I have used it on every boat trailer I have had and My Dad uses it on his Boat trailer which is 20 years old and has probably been pulled thousands of miles. Neither one of us has had any trouble with the lugs or tires except for normal wear and tear.

I do know that you don't want to be stuck on the side of the interstate with a flat and you can't get the wheel off.

it's also a good idea to coat your trailer springs, brackets, etc. with a thick layer of grease if you fish in saltwater all the time, will save you in the long run

Thanks guys for all the help. Just got my boat back last night from the shop and put the new prop i bought on it... Come to find out the people at the boat shop shorted out a few fuses and didnt tell me they did. So I got it home last night with no AM/FM radio and no Marine radio. Had to pull in-line fuse blocks apart and change fuses... Damn the luck!! I think she's ready to go. Need to go buy 2 new tires. My spare holds air for 3 days and the back tire on passenger side (tandem axle trailer) is not looking good at all... looks like 40% tread left on it..(sidewalls are worn down and looks to be leaking air slowly) But other than that, i think im good. If anyone comes across anything or thinks im forgetting anything, please PM me or post it on this forum. I need all the help I can get and im sure it helps other people on here as well thats getting ready to pull a boat. It also acts like a re-freshment course!

Make sure you catch plenty bass and clean them at the tables at Venice Marina. Those uppety a holes hate it when you clean a largemouth on the tables. I make it a point to go bassin when I'm there just to see the dirty looks.
