So I was thinking.....

[jserb]

I have noticed on my tri axle trailer that i have been losing bearing buddies while i trailer. So at first i thought it was because i didnt have the buddy bearings hammered on there right enough. SO i made SURE they were on, and still i lost one. So not im beginning to think would it have to do with the spindle nut? could it be lose, thus as i turn it forces the hub against the nut and pops the bearing off??? just checking to see if anyone has had this problem before. I know these are the right size bearings, just gets annoying when they go missing...

I had the same problem. I switched to a different brand and haven't lost any. Some people have dimpled the part that inserts into the hub with a punch to make them fit tighter
