Best regards,

Good how-to, for those who have never done it.

Always use bearing buddies or similar, I have not lost a bearing in 25 years.

Also, put nevaseez on the back of the rim where it contacts the hub, and of course on the studs and lugs.

Suks if you get a flat, have a spare, but can't get the flat one off the trailer.

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.
