I've heard a rule of thumb being to re-pack/inspect wheel bearings every 50,000
miles... With heavy "truck type use" or wheeling maybe every 30,000? I dunno
as I've only got 25k on mine so far but I'm planning a re-pack/inspection
between 30-40k.

Anyone know how long these are supposed to last, truck is stock has 140,000mi
runs like a champ but the frontend is loose, also a brown goop is dripping
onto the rims, thought the boots may have split but cant find any cracks
anyone have a similar experience?
