Trailer axle and bearing service in Franklin, IL

Wheel bearings and axles carry every pound your trailer hauls. We repack bearings, replace worn parts and look over the axles so a hub does not fail on the highway.

What is included

  • Bearing repack with fresh grease
  • Inspection of bearings, races and seals
  • Replacing worn bearings and seals
  • Checking axles, springs and hangers for wear or damage
  • Axle work on the trailers we sell and most other makes

Signs you need it

  • A hub that runs much hotter than the others after a drive
  • Grinding, rumbling or a wobble at one wheel
  • Grease slung on the inside of a wheel
  • Uneven tire wear on one side
  • You cannot remember the last repack

We will look at your trailer and tell you what we find before we do the work.

Axles and bearing repacks: common questions

How do I know my trailer wheel bearings need to be repacked?

Flatlander Trailer Sales tells customers to watch for a hub that runs much hotter than the others after a drive, grinding or rumbling from one wheel, play when you rock the tire, or grease on the inside of the wheel. If you are not sure when it was last done, a check is cheap insurance, and our Franklin shop repacks with fresh grease.

Call or text (217) 673-0773 to book a repack.
