I have a little blue tackle box I carry in my truck too, it has both common bearing sets, seals, grease,hubs w/studs & nuts and basic tools that fit any of my boat trailers, utility or car haulers in case of a problem. I don't pull with out it!

I stop on the side of the road & fix it real quick (usually 30 minutes or less) and then back on the road to the fishing grounds...

After changing two or three you get good at it. My trailers are usually good to go but the ones I pick up buying and selling usually are crap and in bad shape so I have had to do it a few times.
