Put my boat in the river for the first time this year last week. Everything went fine until I went to take my boat out and when I was strapping everything down to leave, I noticed that BOTH of my bearing buddies were missing and all the grease was pouring out. I know they were there when I left the house because I gave them a shot of grease that morning. I've had these in for over a year with no problems, so I find it really suspicious that both of them would fall out on the same trip. The ramp I was at is off the beaten track and there are some questionable people there sometimes. I'm thinking that someone ripped them off while I was out catching catfish. :evil:
Well I limped home and re-packed the bearings using new grease caps from Bass Pro because I couldn't find anywhere that carried bearing buddies in my area and I had an outing planned the next day so I couldn't wait for a mail order. I hope the Bass Pro caps perform as well.
