Moving Home

[RocketScott]

Worked on the trailer past few days

Pulled the wheel ends off to check everything. The pads looked like they had just enough material for the trip but I was worried about the hub seals. The oil level was low on both sides, it had to go somewhere...

Like onto the brake pads on the left side


I didn't get the hub seal out on that side, it came off with the hub and didn't want to pop out. I'm betting it's the wrong seal. Going to pick up two new seals based off the part number from the seal that wasn't leaking

Bearings and races look really good for having sat for so long. A little bit of rust on the spindle between the bearings from condensation but not too bad.

The S-cam bushings are a little loose. I have the trailer parked at a friend's that's been a mechanic for one of the local transit agencies for a long time. He didn't think that they were too far gone. I'm inclined to replace them since I'm in there. I just never trust that things were done right over the years on old equipment
