I am attending a State Rally and getting a bearing repack done by https://performancetrailerbraking.com/ Folks seem to like thier work.
Now before folks jump on the DIY option this is the first repack on my new axles and I want the breaks set up correctly and everything inspected. They include a complete suspension inspection and wet bolt greasing as part of the deal. I am also getting old with a bad back.
They offer the Hub Saver at a $40 per axle option. Its supposed to keep the hub on if the outer bearing race fails. In my 50 years of travel I have never had a catastrophic bearing failure. Now when I was a kid Dad lost a bearing on his boat trailer coming back from Florida to Illinois. The Hub Saver seems like an expensive oversize washer, but maybe the holes are needed for proper lubrication of the front bearing. Thoughts
So anyone using them and thoughts if this is a worth while investment?
Thanks
