Spring Trailer Prep: Lubricate, Protect, and Tow with Confidence Using AMSOIL

As the chill of winter gives way to warmer breezes, boaters, campers, and outdoor enthusiasts across Wisconsin eagerly prepare for a season of spring adventures. For many, this means getting trailers ready to haul boats, campers, ATVs, and outdoor gear into the heart of nature. Proper trailer maintenance is essential to ensure a safe and smooth journey, and that starts with a comprehensive spring trailer prep routine. Using high-quality AMSOIL products like AMSOIL Synthetic Gear Lube, AMSOIL Synthetic Water-Resistant Grease, and AMSOIL Heavy-Duty Metal Protector will help you lubricate, protect, and tow with confidence this spring.

Key Areas to Address During Spring Trailer Prep

1. Inspect and Lubricate Bearings

Trailer wheel bearings endure tremendous stress, especially when towing heavy loads. If they are not adequately lubricated, they can overheat, seize, and cause wheel failure. During your spring trailer prep, inspect the bearings for wear and apply high-quality grease.

Recommended Product: AMSOIL Synthetic Water-Resistant Grease. This grease is specifically designed to withstand water exposure, making it perfect for boat trailers frequently submerged in Wisconsin’s lakes. It resists washout, provides excellent corrosion protection, and extends bearing life.

2. Check and Change Gear Lube

Trailer hubs and gear mechanisms need fresh lubrication after winter storage. Old gear lube can break down, reducing protection against friction and heat.

Recommended Product: AMSOIL Synthetic Gear Lube. AMSOIL Synthetic Gear Lube provides exceptional wear protection, reduces friction, and ensures smooth operation even under heavy loads. It is especially valuable for trailers used in off-road conditions or those carrying boats over long distances.

Don’t let neglected trailer maintenance spoil your spring adventures. Secure smooth towing and lasting protection with AMSOIL Synthetic Gear Lube, AMSOIL Synthetic Water-Resistant Grease, and AMSOIL Heavy-Duty Metal Protector.

3. Examine the Coupler and Hitch

The coupler and hitch are critical connection points between your vehicle and trailer. Rust, corrosion, and debris can impair their function, increasing the risk of detachment while towing. Clean these components thoroughly and apply a protective coating to prevent rust.

Recommended Product: AMSOIL Heavy-Duty Metal Protector. This multi-purpose spray creates a durable, protective barrier against rust and corrosion. It is ideal for couplers, hitches, and any exposed metal parts on your trailer

4. Test Lights and Wiring

Winter conditions can damage trailer wiring and lights. Faulty lighting increases the risk of accidents and may result in legal penalties. Test all lights, replace burnt-out bulbs, and ensure wiring connections are secure and corrosion-free.

5. Inspect Tires and Brakes

Tires can lose pressure over the winter, and prolonged storage can cause cracks or flat spots. Check tire pressure, tread depth, and sidewalls. If your trailer has brakes, inspect them for wear and ensure they engage smoothly.

6. Clean and Protect the Trailer Frame

Salt residue and moisture from winter can corrode your trailer frame. Washing your trailer thoroughly and applying a protective coating helps prevent rust.

Recommended Product: AMSOIL Heavy-Duty Metal Protector. Spraying this product on the frame creates a moisture-resistant barrier, shielding your trailer from road salt and rain throughout spring and beyond.
