This will be a short post but with a big tip to save you some money. RV dealers can charge a lot of money to repack your bearings. In my case, there are no T@b dealers within a two hour drive, and RV dealers in general, are not close. I had a good experience with Camping World for an emergency repair with my T@b, but the bearing service is well over $100. I like to take care of my bearings and do maintenance between 6-8,000 miles. So, what are my options?

It occurred to me that before I bought my T@b, when I used my small M416 military trailer with a rooftop tent, I used a small utility trailer place with an excellent reputation in my area to service in my bearings, Push-N-Pull. I made an appointment with them and they took care of my bearings for under $50.

You can easily service the bearings yourself, which I would do if it would have required a 4 hour round trip of driving and over $100. There are a lot of Youtube videos to guide you through the process and you would want to pick up a bearings packer. However, for under $50, it is worth it to me to let Push-N-Pull take care of it. Look for utility trailer dealers and service centers in your area to save some money!
