While getting new tires, I noticed the wheel hub on my M416 trailer is cracked.
Not sure when this occurred. I've owned the trailer maybe over a year now and have pulled it around 2500 miles. The roads around here are pretty bad (been told by folks who have spent time in Afghanistan that they're comparable to the worst roads over there.
Looking for options on repair/replacement.....
Is this something that can be welded up in place or is welding not a good repair method for the wheel hub?
Should it be removed before welding?
If replacing, would it be advisable to just upgrade to a new axle or just replace the OE hub?
Any recommendations on where to source?
Thanks
