I have these on my fifth wheel. Had em on my last one also. On the old one I put new brakes on it then pumped grease thru the zerks. Filled the drums with grease. So I cleaned em up and just hand packed the bearings. No more problems.
So on the trailer I have now I ran into a video explaining how to grease these axles. Jack up the wheel and spin it while pumping grease in slowly until grease comes out of the outer bearing. I just pulled one of the hubs because my prodigy controller was giving me a 5H code. The thing is covered in grease. What the hell am I doing wrong? Do these just not work as advertised? I’ve got new self adjusting brakes coming and don’t want to destroy $250 worth of brakes. Have any of you guys used these axles with success? Tips on how you do it if you do?
