[AT] wheel bearings

[charlie hill]

Ivan,  I have the old hub in the back of my truck.  It's the factory 
original piece.  I'll try to remember to check it out soon and let you
know what I find.

   There has been some discussion about this on Class B forum 
,especially the newer chevy's .   Also a website about how to go about 
greasing them . Seems they are sealed on the brake rotor side but the 
back side is a dust sheild which lets the grease run out . Basically you 
jack up the truck,remove wheel, brake calipers and rotor . Remove the 
single allen head bolt holding the ABS sensor on . Now you can use a 
needle adapter or make your own and add grease to it . All shown in the 
video .
    Personal observation on my chevy, I have seen them with blue or red 
grease so be carefull which you use . From what I understand they dont 
mix well .  I havent found the round toit to try mine , too busy cutting 
up firewood .
