Default Re: Evaluating rear axles

be advised Tom has updated his procedures and published them at a Cal. A site. Search here for the exact location, it came up in the last 2-3 weeks.

I would install the seals with the open side toward the hub as you suggested. I would also seldom if ever grease the large rear wheel Hyatt bearings via the zerk fitting; other than to hand pack them as suggested above...the grease stays in there very nicely. I have had to dig an awful lot of grease out of brakes from over-exuberant greasing
