I've been down that road before with throwing bearings. [i]Its not in my interest to abandon my boat on the side of the road where it can be ez pickings for a thief. I have been waved off going down interstate of a literal smoking bearing putting me on the side of the road. I was a mile from the exit I was heading which I made it to driving slow on the shoulder. Being miles away from any facilities it took a tow truck 2 1/2hrs to reach me and approximately 65mi to get my boat home. My spindle was toast, so I ended up purchasing another axle. I bought the axle at TJ Trailer supply on Pennsylvania Ave in Ogden. The axle I bought eliminated the use of a bearing buddy with grease fitting on the end known as the ez lube which I converted to oil bath. [/i]
