What do you do if you keep loosin bearing buddies? bought the boat a couple weeks ago and all but one bearing buddy was the same. Lost the first one on the first trip out, replaced it, it did need to be coaxed in with a hammer and a block of wood as stated in the instructions. Then lost the new one on the second trip out, anybody have any suggestions on what to do? Its obvious this has been an ongoing problem because the other three bearings are capped off with the trailer buddys which don't need a bearing bra.
any suggestions?

if you're bearings are loose and you dont have the nut tightened properly the hub will vibrate and eventually push the bearing buddy loose and then it falls off...
when was the last time u put new bearings on it? they're pretty cheap.
