I have a a wheel bearing that looks to be bad. The trailer is for a 2011 skeeter zx250 with The Vault wheel bearing system. Where would be a good place, close to North Fort Worth to have this worked on? I have replace hubs and bearings in previous trailers but have had no experience with Vault hubs. Are they difficult to replace?

There is a place on mill street in Lewisville (McGill 972-436-7498) that can do them at a reasonable price. I just had both non brake wheels replaced and repacked with Vault hybrid grease, next I will do the braking axle. Good luck

I just did this in fall last year, have Champion 203 and what I found was the nut which fit on the Spindle was too big for the Vault cover. The Vault nut would not fit on spindle(Metric). I ended up using different system, however, the Vault Grease... I would also check your Master Cylinder, mine was rusted up and ended up switching it out as well. Trailer was 15 years old...

Do it yourself. Very simple and easy. I have done several.
