Nice, thanks for sharing, I have a paper gasket on my hub, the previous owner was generous with the silicone not like you. I have found a combo of diesel and gas is the most effective degreaser if you are making your own. You still have that snow drift, hope you have to start mowing soon.
Don’t use gasoline while wearing thin rubber gloves or it will melt those gloves, if you can find thick rubber gloves that people use for hand washing dishes then it’s safe. Gasoline is a lot cheaper than those brake cleaning spray cans. I bought 5 dollars worth of gasoline and less than a litre cleaned all the grease. Diesel is good for degreasing I have used it in the past. But If you can find Kerosene oil that’s the best degreaser.
@@CrazyforCruiser Yes on the Kerosene, I keep forgetting how great that does, thanks for the reminder. Hope that snow drift starts melting soon and summer peaks it head in your direction.
Yes it did, you might not need to re grease your wheel bearing, if your wheel bearings are serviced recently. All you may need to do, is to re-tighten the 54mm axle nut to factory torque specs. Make sure your car’s front tires don’t have uneven wear. Swap front tires with rear and then check if it makes any difference. But do check for play in front wheel bearings.
