I purchased a new kaufman trailer on 9/23/2011 model fdw-6k-18 equipped with two lippert 6000 lbs axles.i use this trailer to haul a 4000 lbs tractor and when i had to make a stop my trailer began to swerve when i applied the brakes.i noticed that grease was leaking out of several axle hubs.when returned home i disassembled the axles hubs to discover the brake drums and backing plates covered in grease.i contacted the kaufman trailers and they referred me to lippert components, inc. About axle warranty.i contacted lippert about the grease and said that was cosmoline and that was normal.i explained that it was grease and that i thought it was a safety issue; i even supplied pictures of the hubs with grease on the hub and wheel.i believe the grease used was of poor quality and when the axle heated up the grease liquefied causing the brake problem.i had a near miss but i want others to be aware of this problem with lippert components axles.updated 07/19/11updated 07/26/11 updated 3/02/2012 *ln
