Post subject: | Service required for axle bearings? |
I've had the axles out of this Ford 8" for a couple of weeks now and am wondering if there is service required for the bearings. They feel smooth, but wonder if there is a way to pack them with grease? Are these guys sealed lube? Sam |

Should be a sealed bearing with the oil seal in the axle tube inboard the bearing. Brian |

Yes, the axle seal is inboard of the bearing. I wondered if it needed greasing like front bearings? Sam |

Looks like a sealed bearing to me. Nothing to do except replace it when it fails. http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/moreinf ... cc=1129913 |
