That.......is cool.

In our camper, we have an air mattress topped with 4 in. of foam. Very comfortable bed.

Tires are fairly new, and the seller told me he repacked the bearings not long back. Naturally on the first trip I'll stop a couple times to make sure nothing is overheating though.

Until you repack them yourself, it's just a line of BS.

I got a bearing packer off ebay like this for $12 shipped ( metal, not plastic)


The bearings and the races should be shiny. If they are dull or grey, they are worn and go into the travel tool box for emergency use only. All the roller bearings should be smooth with absolutely no marks or imperfections at all. Do NOT spin them when dry.

That way you know for a fact you have good bearings and seals.

Trailer looks great
