Get them done??? Or do them yourself???

The reason I ask this question is to be sure you understand that if you go to a RV service center and tell them to "lube your wheel bearings" or "check the grease in my wheel bearings", they may simply use a grease gun and "squirt a little grease in the zerk fitting".... We've had more than a few members get charged for "repacking the wheel bearings and adjusting the brakes" who thought they were getting a "disassembly, inspection, hand repacking bearings, replacement grease seals and brake inspection/adjustment" but in reality, all they got was a "zerk fitting grease addition and brake adjustment"...

So, specify exactly what you want: Wheel disassembly, bearing cleaning/regreasing, brake inspection and adjustment after reassembling the wheel. Otherwise, you really won't know what they did.
