    Are your trailers not derated or are the gcwr with the truck low enough?

    I have the same trailer. Something happened on the road in Alabama a couple nights ago. I didn’t see or hear anything until someone flagged me that I had a blowout. Anyhow, it bent both of my axles and both of the frame joyces in succession. Is there anyway that I could send or email you a few pics, so that I know what I should do and buy to repair it? I just don’t trust many of these trailer repair shops w all the horror stories of price gouging I’ve heard. Thanks 🙏

    PD diesel: does that trailer come with a torque tube at 32'? And when you get your combo. weighed, how much do you estimate the trailer would weigh? Heavy?

    I would think that the trailer manufacturer would have actual torque specs for the bearings.

    How often are you greasing them. I was told to grease after every 10-20 thousand miles. I use synthetic grease and a few pumps and seems to work well. I have a 36 foot Kaufman with twin 7 K axles.? Thanks for the Video

    The Transport Guy it depends how often you use it. I say every three months.

    The Transport Guy most important is to have them adjust properly and use good synthetic grease. Your good to go 30k between greasing. because thats roughly what we do. and this system worked for us for the last 7 years

    That's about where I figure I would perform the maint. I never overload the axles and do my best to even the units on the trailer and centered so I get even wear on the tires. Once concern that another Kaufman owner told me was the quality of rims from the factory. Said they tend to crack. Has that ever happened? I upgraded my tires to Cooper Discover but still factory rims
