Towing across the state should be a breeze for me this year! One reminder is to not overfill the hubs with grease because it either blows out the rear seal or launches the bearing buddy

Hey GFS, do yourself a favor replace with these when needed, or just get 'em now.

Very good Sandy!!! Stainless caps is the way to go. Yeah they are about $6, however it's a one time cost versus a bunch of the cheapies!! I'm with Conner on not using too much grease, before I tow long distances I pull the rubber cover on the Posi Lube caps, have a look for no water, pump grease just until it squeezes out of the outer bearing and done! No more grease is needed.

Hey you bone heads this is the Gathering Section...

Not the repair section.....

Lets get back on track!! Pulled Pork, Smoked Turkey and fresh Steamed
Shrimp!!

You know I'm just breakin' your chops!

I can't wait...

Word has it that even Capt Chuck & Lil will be slummin' with the
rest of us in a TENT!!!

OK Briguy, sorry no 5 star hotels close by, but you can do it if you try!!

Spent the day going over the inventory for our family gathering!!
