I like tube grease too, because I can use the grease gun and a bearing packing tool, rather than try to scoop grease into the bearing by hand.

Pelican has some awesome prices on bearings right now. What I noticed is that the SKFs seem to be made in Latin America and the others seem to be made in Asia. There is a Japanese made bearing, and *** is now made in South Korea.

I got *** bearings and swepco 101 moly grease.

Spent $75 for both front wheels, inner/outer/seals/grease

Job done. Issues found

1. I need to rebuild drivers side caliper
2. Pass side spindle inner bearing race is worn (noticably) that's a bummer. I will have to monitor it.

Left off the dust caps for now because I want to drive it 10 miles of so and re-check.

Also- I see track cars w/o the center caps in the wheels. Is that so they don't come off at the track, to speed up bearing adjustment, of to look cool?

Cheers guys, tired tonight
