Before I had my bearings packed last year, I noticed that the outrigger behind my rear tandum axle was rusting through. I found some asphault caulking and filled in the tiny holes as well as other areas where water could get into that area. I then had the RV guy repacking the bearings spray the entire wheelwell area, paying close attention to laying it on thick in the areas where I had caulked. I used an asphault type rather than the type that sets up like a rubber finish. That stuff seems to hold in moisture.
