Guess what, the front part of this bearing is not sealed.
I took apart my hub bearing and I find plastic races holding the balls.
I find only one seal and that is on the backside of the hub, the front or outer side of the bearing has no seal.
There is a flimsy spring steel clip holding the split shells together. This popped off and my bearing fell apart.
I had removed the other hub off the journal and decided to give it a wack with the sledge using some wood to protect it. This was an atempt to separate the drum from the hub without using heat. I wish I had a press.
SO the rear hub bearings are sealed only on the inner race shell not the outer. Still dont like it because it is causing me grief!
