Location: Elk River, Minnesota | I've looked at those liqualube type hubs....and have been curious about how well the cap (lexan or plastic of some sort) holds up to rocks. My rig usually takes a trip once a year that puts it on a 40 mile poorly maintained dirt road in the canadian bush... I'd hate to have one break and lose the liquid.
And...how in the heck can the back seal keep the fluid in...it still has to spin around the axle shaft. Even with regular hubs and re-packing yearly in the fall with new seals etc., I still get a little water in them. It's never anything major, but some always will get in. |
