Question:
The Ce Smith CE48810 trailer pictures appear to show a zerk fitting on the side of the Hub on the inside side of the trailer. Are there such fittings on the hubs of this trailer?

Hey Kevin. The CE Smith Multi Sport Boat and Kayak Trailer w/ Bunks item # CE48810 does not have grease zerks on the hubs or axle.
You can replace the stock grease caps with the etrailer Bearing Protectors w/ Covers for 1.98" Hub Bore item # e99005. These are great for easy maintenance and work especially well in marine conditions.

Hey Kevin, how did the bearing protectors work out on your CE Smith trailer? Those should make keeping the hubs greased a lot easier. Your update could make it easier for the next person with the same setup.
