If they are still good........... mark the box.:D I was just trying to get an Idea of how long these 'new' hubs last or don't last.:confused: I myself, take really good care of the system...yet, I've had problems. On the other hand, my buddy that beats the living SCensored T out of his and NEVER gets the wheels checked.......has no problem at all. Go figure?

10k and still goo :confused:
What was she whispering in your ear, burner? ):h
I agree with you, there is no rhyme or reason for them going out......Seems to be right along the lines with the LB7 injectors...some last for a long time, some die a quick death...

IMHO it is just as important to change the front end oil as the rear. I have found a lot of aluminum particles in every one of my trucks on the first change. My 89 was the worst. I changed it because both axle seals were seeping. When I wiped the oil off with a clean white rag it was grey. I changed the oil. Within a week, no more leaks. Later! Frank

That is good, But the hub assemblies are not lubricated by the front differential.
