asked by: William W
Helpful Expert Reply:
Not all bearings are created equal, but you would be hard-pressed to find one that is vastly superior than another. Whether it is TruRyde, Timken, or some other brand, if the bearings are properly maintained, used in the correct hub, and within the capacity of the trailer they will last a long time.
They do not really have a rating in miles or time. You will need to inspect them for time to time, perhaps when yo uare inspecting other parts like brakes or suspension components. I have included a link to a video that will help you with that.
