Alfred - Please confirm that trailers manufactured after 1996 do not need to
have the wheel bearings repacked. I received my trailer in 2000, so I would assume that it was built after 1996. I noticed this summer that when trailering the center cap on the hub would be hot to the touch. Not extremely hot, but definitely hotter than the tires, etc. On account of this I had intended to repack the bearings this winter. Should I not be concerned with some heating. I do typically trailer at 75 to 80 M.P.H. (Western U.S.) Best Regards, Doug Weibel "Alfred Spindelberger" wrote in message om... "Greg Arnold" wrote in message news:oXmfb.7094$La.24@fed1read02... I think the brakes are designed so they don't work when the wheels are turning backwards. So be careful about parking the trailer when the tongue is aiming uphill. "Udo Rumpf" wrote in message ... What is the mechanism to prevent the breaks from being activated when backing up? -- One more remark: When you push the trailer back with open handbrake: So soon the lever goes more than vertical the wheel brakes need adjustment!
