Updated 07/09/2025 | Published 07/03/2025 >
Question:
I bought a 2001 Tennessee boat trailer and it looks like the bearings need grease. I need 1grease for this 2 caps for the hubs and 3 can you tell me if this trailer has a wet axle? I think it’s a traditional grease but I want to make sure, thanks

Hey Anthony, for grease the RED LMX part # L11380 would be the best route to go. I don't have a way to look up what dust covers you'd need so you'd have to measure the bore of your hub where the cover goes and I can get you what you need from there. It probably is a grease hub. If it has a metal dust cover its grease but if it's plastic and clear it's oil.

Thanks. I will purchase the grease. I also need a boat plug for a 2001 Chris Craft 210 bow rider. Any help would be appreciated
