### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    They look good
  

*by J***Y on Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2024*

I'm  restoring a flat bed trailer that I just got from a neighbor.  It needed a lot! First I installed new hubs - from Amazon, of course. But I went one step farther.  As an ASE multi-certified automotive diagnostic tech, I know the benefit of proper lubrication to Any moving part. Particularly wheels and hubs.  This is an absolute requirement for any trailer I own. Lube it once and thereafter just watch the visible spring. When it expands and more space is visible between the coils, add more grease. These units are inexpensive, work well, and prevent a catastrophe on the road. Being stuck  on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere with a seized axle bearing is BAD! But its preventable. Install these.

    Overpressure Relief Hole
  

*by M***B on Reviewed in the United States on September 9, 2024*

The hole is an extra feature I love.  When the spring is pushed out enough by full grease, relief comes out the hole on the side.The previous Bearing Buddy popped off somewhere during a trip, possobly due to overpressure using an automatic grease gun or maybe not tight fit.  A different Bearing Buddy broke off a fitting.Yes I used a grinder to round the lip, yes it went in extremely tight with a sledgehammer and 2 by 4 block of wood.  There are ridges on the pressed in part, presumably they will dig in over time.  Yes if I ever have to change the hub I'll likely have to destroy the assembly with a sledge to remove it.  At $14 that's no problem, cheap enough to destroy.One real issue is the rubber bra is loose.  I sprayed contact cement to hold it in place.  I also drilled a hole in the rubber cap and matched it to the relief hole so I can see grease coming out if it heats up.  And I put a zip tie on the cap.  If anything falls off I will be surprised.Great value for $14.  I've replaced 6 failed Bearing Buddies with these so far.  Overpressure hole and tight fit are perfect.  The first four never failed after a few hundred miles, I'll see for these next 2.

    Works well
  

*by A***V on Reviewed in the United States on August 25, 2024*

Had to replace hubs on boat trailer-perfect investment for greasing wheel bearings. Install was easy, looks good and comes with rubber dust cover. Should be able to trust a name like Reese!
