Best GMC Terrain RV Skid Wheels

I think these were definitely worth the cost. I have a rather steep driveway and knew I was running the risk of dragging the tail end of my brand new tilt deck trailer. So, before taking delivery I sketched up my idea for removable drag rollers and turned the dealer's fabricators loose to make it happen. They turned out better than I hoped and work like a champ. It might be a bit of a chore to get them on and off (no more than 5 mins/side), but was necessary to maintain the loading edge getting all the way to the ground.

Overall I have to give this skid roller a low rating. However if I rate the parts individually I have better results. The bracket is excellent, 1/4" thick steel and the holes are just the right size not too big. The roller is also excellent. The internal bearing is slightly wider than the roller so you can tighten the bolt as much as you want and the roller will still turn. The bolt is very poor. The hole for the recessed grease zerk is too deep weakening the bolt head. The head broke off before the head and nut even shouldered up the the bracket. Also the bolt is either grade 2 or 5. My advice: If you purchase this roller, replace the bolt with 1/2" grade 8; however you will no longer be able to grease the roller.

You will need a very small grease gun fitting to get grease into the zerk fitting for the bearing. The zerk fitting is surrounded by the nut bolt head on one end of the bearing shaft and my handheld grease gun does not fit into that tight space. Otherwise... as advertised.

Got them attached to my hitch with no problem and had about 3/4 inch difference between the bottom of the wheel and the bar that was scraping. Tested today and they worked good and now no more divots in the pavement. Put them on a 2023 28 foot Forest River Forester
