I think it all depends on how far and often you tow. My average towing round trip is about 120 miles. I had infrequent issues with bearings, tires, and rotten spring hardware on a 10 year old trailer and after just a couple of roadside issues I tore it all out and replaced them with torsion axles and oversized/rated tires. Best money I have ever spent. When you consider how valuable a trouble free day off on your boat is, the cost to keep things trouble free far exceeds the value of gambling with aging parts.
