Oil bath is a proven product for years in big trucks and trailers but for some reason they can't get the seals to work on these smaller axles. Walk around any truck stop and that's all you will see. That and the fact that none of the pros use tire pressure monitors. Good luck whmayhew. Clev=get off my thread.

You don't 'own' any thread, porkie, but if I had known you were involved, I would not have posted my question. Did you notice the time? When he posted Porkie, I didn't reply. BUT SINCE YOU DIDN’T THINK CLEARLY ABOUT POKING A SLEEPING BEAR AND BROUGHT IT UP: why are you working on wheel bearings? Are you an experienced, trained mechanic? Do you have 40 years of experience? Do you know that you are dangerous and can cause life threatening situations with your untrained modifications?

FWIW, I’ve waited all day, thinking that you might delete that last comment. I should have known better.
