Bad seal on 2021 trailer hub?

[996scott]

Had to pull off a tire due to low tire pressure. I noticed a lot of oil on the hub so I’m assuming I have a bad seal. It should be covered under warranty?? I pulled another one off just to check and it looked good.

I would think it would be covered. Do you tow with a lot of lead? It’s 5 years for the Vault hubs https://www.boatmatetrailers.com/warranty_terms.php

I have towed with some lead a few times but it's pretty rare and not very far. Thanks for the link, i'll give the dealer a call.

what wheels do you have? I got the 18's and the hub cover has potential to trap water.. I added some reliefs so it can drain faster to ease my concern of water sitting on the hub for extended periods. the hub cover would also keep any leaked grease in that area, versus letting it wash away.

They are the standard 16in wheels. Spoke with the dealer and will bring it in on Monday to have them replace it.

What's the best way to change the hubs. I tow with weight and all my hubs are slinging rust. 2018 Moomba Mojo trailer.

You might still be under warranty.
