In the interest of fairness and balance, and no disrespect intended.....my 29RKS is the second trailer I've owned that has had Dexter axles with self adjusting brakes and EZ lube bearings. I have pulled the Jayco 15,000 mi since purchasing it and just finished greasing the bearings (3rd time, per previous post) The previous trailer I pulled about 25,000 miles. I NEVER had the problems cited by "Rock" or previous posters with brakes or bearings. Maybe I will, but, I haven't! I don't believe the problem is as endemic as cited.
........I agree with the observation about grease on the backing plates of boat trailers. I used to pump grease into my bearing buddies until it oozed out everywhere, along with the water, but, no brakes, no harm no foul.
