Wheel bearing pack service
A wheel bearing pack service is recommended every 12 months or every 12,000 miles, whichever comes first. Whether you are a DIY guy or gal or you utilize an RV repair shop, be sure to get this service done if your RV is due (based on mileage and/or time) or question the functionality of your brakes.

A thorough service will include:
- Inspection of brakes and bearings for wear or damage
- Cleaning and repacking of wheel bearings and replacing the seals
- Cleaning and adjusting the brake shoes as well as testing the operation
- Adjusting tire pressure and torquing wheels to specifications
- Inspecting shackle links, springs, hangers, all welds and wiring at axles
