Well im not the happiest camper right now. It turns out that since the hubs on the LUV arent seled my bearings were running on water and are now toas after a little more than a year. So i am now going to seal the hubs up whith silicone. Everysingle mating surfacein the hub (extirior of coaurse) will be getting a bead of silicone. I would sugest that if you have a 4x4 and wheel it to do the same. Or youll probly be replacing wheel bearings every year...
