2.9 Pre-Storage Maintenance
If your trailer is to be stored for an extended period of time or over the winter, it is
important that the trailer be prepared properly.
1. Give the trailer a thorough wash down and let it dry completely.
2. Remove the breakaway battery (for electric brake systems) and store inside, out
of the weather. Charge the battery at least every 90 days.
3. Jack up the trailer and place jack stands or blocks under the suspension tie
plates so that the weight will be off the tires. The best way to jack the trailer for this is to
place the jack under the trailer frame rail using a wood block to protect the finish. Raise
the jack until the suspension assembly on that side is high enough to insert the blocks.
Never jack or support the trailer using the axle tube or equalizers.
4. Lubricate exposed mechanical moving components such as the hitch and sus-
pension parts. Store the trailer under cover for best protection, or under a tarp if cover
is not available. Leaving the trailer out in the weather may cause accelerated aging.
5. No wheel bearing service is necessary at this time unless the axles have been
immersed.
