huh must be only on their bearings, because I think the rest are one solid outside housing pressed in


if it works, it might be an upside to be able to grease if that's why they are failing.

I still mean to pull apart my old timkin to try and see why it failed.

Get to pulling... lol

I am pretty sure all these type of hubs can be greased in this manner.

I don't thing you can grease that thru the sensor hole? but it would be interesting to see if it's dried out inside like lack of grease.

I'll try to get it apart at work when I get a min. 1st of the month is always busy

Obviously these cutaways are graphic renderings but you can see where the reluctor wheel is that the ABS sensor reads and it looks like a perfect path for the grease to get into the bearings IMO.
