Do I have Nev-R-Lube bearings?

Is there a way to tell (without taking off wheels) whether the Nev-R-Lube bearings are fitted on my 2013 Flying Cloud 25?

If the axle still has the manufacturer sticker on it, you should be able to tell by the numbers on it, as they are made as a single unit to order. Usually middle of the axle and if Murphy put it on, directly on top.

And if you look in the manuals that came with the trailer, there should be one for the Dexter axles. There should be 2 stickers on the inside of the front cover. These are the S/N for the axles that were installed in your trailer. Can call Dexter with this info and they can tell you what you have. At least this is how my Airstream came. Good luck, Mike

Never lube bearings

My 23’ FC does not have never lube bearings, I believe they are standard on the 25’, check your manuals as suggested.

Thanks all. I was able to dig out the Dexter manual and there are indeed a couple of stickers inside the front cover. I fired off the question to Dexter and will wait for a response.
