I learned the hard way how fast saltwater can destroy your trailer. Let my mistakes save you money and time off the water. You will need: White lithium grease CorrosionX Grease gun with marine grease

Lanolin is a great thing to spray on things you don't want to rust and is better at it than grease. Lithium grease is great for lubrication though.

Fluid Film is designed as a corrosion inhibitor to spray underneath your car/trailer chassis - white lithium does resist washout well but not nearly as well as Fluid Film or some other dedicated chassis corrosion inhibitor.

I have a 5 gallon pump sprayer that I fill with fresh soapy water and flush my brakes and springs after I launch my boat. I figure its going to sit there all day, why not rinse it then as well.

You should use some wire wrap for all those wires to keep them neat and out of the way of harm.

You have many rusted spots. As you are not fixing them, you could easily and cheaply touch them up with "Krud Kutter The Must for Rust" (do an KZbin search for it). You could use the spray or you could buy a jug and apply it with a brush. Do it during a cool day to avoid the fast evaporation of the liquid. You might want to apply it several times.

"the grease inside, I don't know, some kind of all purpose stuff" I don't think you know what you're talking about

Not suppose to pump directly into the fittings, you will blow out your seal. That is what I was told. Instead you need to take out your bearings and repack them
