It DOES take a lot of grease to flush out all the old grease. But I can do my 4 wheels in a few minutes.

When I go to the preferred oil bath system it will be a rare thing to do any maintenance at all.

I will be dis assembling and cleaning the bearings completely then replace the rear seal with a Quality National Oil Seal then lube the bearings assemble adjust and fill with AMZ/OIL 75-90 SevereGear.
