Based on what I've seen on our rig, or more accurately NOT seen, I have to say the advice from Kodiak saying you'll see a small amount of lube leaking on the backside doesn't ALWAYS hold true. The backside of the wheel needing repairs is completely devoid of ANY leaked contaminants or evidence there ever have been. Like I mentioned earlier, I had no clue there was anything wrong with it until I got the rig home and checked the wheels when the stabilizers lifted that side's wheels off the ground. The only other unrecognized hint was the light screeching sound I heard now and then during some tight turns on our trip home with it. For me I think the wheel wobble test may be the most reliable indicator.
