    Default Adjusting Wheel bearings on RT622 Trailer

    Getting ready to go on a 4-5,000 mile west coast tour next week. I checked the wheels on my trailer and had a small amount of looseness when rocking one of my tires back in forth. Just a little klunking sound and feel when tweeking the wheel. I removed the tire and dust cover. The grease looked good. Removed the cotter pin and the wheel bearing nut was not quite hand tight. The hub would spin without ANY resistance. I tightened the nut one cog which was just a little beyond hand tight. Put things back together and now I have a very little resistance when turning the hub. With the wheel on, it spins pretty freely and there is no more clunk when tweeking the wheel. Does this sound like it is tightened correctly.....?

    Default Yup

    We do them just like that. Except, while you have it apart, repack the bearings with fresh grease. Add bearing buddies, and boom! Ann has 150,000 miles on her 622. Easy.
