Just a comment FYI. We were on the way back from Alaska and I apparently lost an outside bearing. Result was tire cockeyed out and a grease fire, all happening just as I was turning into the campground. We had to replace the axle, hub, bearings for that wheel. I have been religious about using the EZ Lube system being very careful about turning the wheel as I used a hand grease pump and then looking for the “old” grease to come out the front until the new (Mystic) red grease starts to appear. The other 3 wheels did not have any evidence that I had blown a grease seal so I think the bearing just failed. I will hand pack my wheels from now on and definitely change all the bearing to a better quality than factory supplied ones. My thought is that while some may have had good luck with factory bearings so far as I have, but this is also the factory that provided the wonderful tires ,Marathons, as original equipment and I think all of us know they are purely worthless tires.
