I hope you packed the bearing with grease. If not you will need a new one again in a few more trips with the trailer depending on how much you use it.
I have a 10' utility trailer I haul golfcarts on to the beach. 5 hour drive each way and I have packed the bearing's once a year. I've had the trailer for 12 years and replaced the bearings one time so far. Porper maintance is the key here.
