Just comenting on my personal experience. I only put a few thousand miles a year on mine, so your maintance is probably different than mine. My truck just turned 26k miles on a '12 3500 Ram, so I spend a lot of time sitting. Last year the trailer saw less than 3k miles, same with the truck.

It sounds like you only need to repack on account of the grease drying up on account of lack of use. lol.
