On another note, he told me I was long past due for repacking my bearings and that it should be done. So, I said, if I damage my hub I have to buy a whole new trailer? No, he said, I would just have to buy the hub from someone else as they don't do business with the manufacturer of the hub any longer! Interesting but not surprising, I guess. Well, he started looking to see what it took and decided he couldn't make one up for me after all as the hub had been discontinued. The guy told me that the one in the catalog that is sold by BP wouldn't fit but he could make one up for me. I stopped by the parts dealer for Tracker last weekend as I happened to be in the area and wanted to pick up a spare hub with bearings kit.
I probably average around 2500 to 3500 miles per year on it. So far, everything still seems as tight as it did when it was new.
I have always kept my bearings full of grease and always jack it up once a year to check for play or wobble or noise. Just stumbled onto this site and looks like a great site! I probably have been lucky but I have a 2003 Trailstar trailer matched to my 185 Tracker that I bought new in 2003.
