Have to do the wheel bearings this week and was wondering if anyone has Dura Hubs on their trailer and how they are going.

I saw their stand at the SC boat show & was playing around with the 2 demo wheels which one had a normal wheel bearing & the another a Durahub..

The Durahub spins so much more freely than a normal wheel bearing & when mine are due i'm getting a set for sure! It would make towing so much easier & would help with fuel bill too..

Robbo I reckon they are great. Apart from anything else the window gives you peace of mind there is no water in there. I've had them on for a few months now and all is good. ;)

I asked my dealer the other day about them, He said he would fit them to his boat but made a valid point. If you lose or knock a bearing buddie off, you can still tow it home. Lose a durahub and u tow it no where....
That is making me rethink.
