What Is a Bearing Repack and Why Does Your RV Trailer Need It?

When you’re towing your RV trailer, the wheel bearings are doing some of the hardest work. They keep your wheels rolling smoothly, handle the weight of your trailer, and take on thousands of miles of heat and road stress. Like any hardworking part, they need proper care—and that’s where a bearing repack comes in.

A bearing repack is the process of:

  • Removing the wheels and wheel bearings
  • Cleaning away old, worn-out grease
  • Inspecting bearings for wear, cracks, or damage
  • Repacking with fresh, high-quality grease
  • Reassembling everything for safe operation

Over time, grease breaks down, collects dirt, and loses its ability to protect against heat and friction. Without fresh lubrication, bearings can overheat, seize up, or fail completely.

Repacking your bearings is one of the simplest ways to protect your trailer from expensive and dangerous problems:

  • Prevents Costly Repairs– A failed bearing can damage hubs, spindles, and axles.
  • Keeps You Safe– Bearing failure often happens suddenly, sometimes causing wheels to lock up or even come off.
  • Improves Towing Performance– Proper lubrication keeps things running smoothly, reducing stress on tires and suspension.
  • Protects Against Rust and Corrosion– Fresh grease seals out moisture that can build up during storage.
  • About every 12 months or 12,000 miles(whichever comes first).
  • More often if you tow in harsh conditions like gravel roads, water crossings, or long mountain trips.

At Ramblin’ Man, we know a safe trip starts with reliable bearings—but we don’t stop there. When you bring your RV to us for a bearing repack, we also:

  • Perform a full brake and suspension inspection
  • Grease suspension and wet boltsfor smoother towing and longer component life
  • Make sure everything is ready so you can roll down the road with peace of mind

A bearing repack is affordable insurance against roadside breakdowns and costly repairs. At Ramblin’ Man, we combine expert service with a commitment to your safety so you can enjoy your travels worry-free.

G, Geno

Excellent knowledge and service. I had Brooke repack my bearings at a rally and he discovered and fixed a couple of more pressing issues that he found at the same time. Highly recommended and I’d definitely use him again. He and his family are great people!

C, John

Ramblin' Man Repair did an excellent job repacking the bearings on my DRV Fullhouse MX450. They were very thorough and I would highly recommend them.

H, Chad

I have been involved with auto/aircraft/rv maintenance and techs for most of my adult life. I can say with absolute certainty that Brooke is one of the most organized, professional and skilled individuals I have met. The installation of the disc brake conversion was text book perfect, on time, on estimate and the results were beyond expectations. I highly commend, recommend and thank Brooke for his work!
