I feel your pain. I fixed this last week, 22" enclosed


It let go a few blocks from home. I ended up pulling the axle and having the spindle replaced and did all the other bearings



Yeah -- the bearing must have gone a couple 5 miles or more -- it had REALLY chewed up everything! The castle nut was partly rounded off which really made it hard to get off -- and the lock washer "thingy" was mangled which made things even more difficult with no tools to work with. I ended up shopping at WalMart for a screw driver etc....

I think poor Rudy's trailer lived at the beach for awhile... it was pretty rotted out.

Dang dude! Sorry I missed ya! I bought a Snap-On 30 gallon parts washer from a buddy in Portland and had to wait for him to come to Jubitz so we could load it in the trailer. So didn't leave Portland until about noonish. It was a busy day in Ptown --- 'cause I also needed to swap out all the stuff I left in my old trailer! I forgot how much crap I was carrying around in there! OMG!
