Disassemble and clean
We remove the hub and clean the wheel-end components so wear can be evaluated.
Protect the parts that carry every mile. We grease, inspect, and replace trailer bearings, seals, and hubs for routine maintenance and wheel-end repairs.
Bearings, seals, and hubs work together at every trailer wheel. Grease protects the bearings, seals help keep grease in and contamination out, and the hub supports the rotating assembly. Heat, water, age, and normal wear can eventually compromise any of them.
We recommend servicing wheel ends at the same time as the brakes. The hubs already need to come off for a thorough drum-brake inspection, so combining the work is usually more efficient and cost-effective.
The figures below are typical component prices, not complete installed totals. Brand, axle capacity, hub style, brake configuration, and the condition found during disassembly affect the repair estimate.
These ranges are based on common scenarios supplied by our shop and are not a quote. Parts prices, trailer condition, configuration, and labor can change the final cost.
We remove the hub and clean the wheel-end components so wear can be evaluated.
We check bearings, races, seals, spindle surfaces, grease, and the hub condition.
We install the approved components, repack bearings, set the wheel end, and verify operation.
Taking care of hubs, bearings, seals, and brakes in the same appointment can reduce duplicated labor and gives you a more complete view of the trailer condition.
Service intervals depend on use and environment, but we recommend inspecting them with annual brake service. Boat trailers and high-mileage commercial trailers may need closer attention.
Yes. Timken bearings are a premium option and can cost more than common bearing brands, depending on the application.
We keep most common hubs, bearings, and seals in stock. Less common or heavy-duty applications may need to be ordered.
Bring the trailer to our shop for a diagnosis and a repair plan based on the condition we find.
