i am relatively mechanically inclined and can follow a youtube video and step to step directions - the biggest concern is making sure I have the right parts on hand and not missing those

You can acquire the bearing part number off the existing bearing, or visit:
www.etrailer.com. They should have your trailer and year listed there. Your axle manual should have the approved greases, but not a good idea to mixed brands. I found Lucas Red & Tacky to be the common grease amongst RV'ers, which may not be on that list. It's recommended to replace the seals each time, but I've re-used them as long as they're not damaged. You either have Lippert or Dexter Axles, so follow their guidance on bearings.
