I fully agree with rorhmann and beeje ... I think we've gone a bit overboard on the MOC as far as wheel bearing repack interval recommendations. Every couple of years or so should be adequate especially if you only pull 3-4 thousand miles a years. A lot of tow vehicles still have repackable front wheel bearings and I don't hear people chime in about repacking them yearly. For those of you that repack yearly ... I'm not saying you're wrong ... whatever makes peace of mind for you. I hated the mess no matter how often or not I repacked ... I went with Kodiak oil bath kits and leave the grease gun to just the shackle bolts. The pressed on hub caps make getting to your spindle nuts if need be a bit harder, but that's how it plays out.
