How Much Grease Should I Use on The Spindle With 50MM Nev-R-Lube Bearing
Updated 09/20/2019 | Published 09/19/2019 >
Question:
After inspecting and cleaning the spindle and bearing can you apply to much grease to the inner race and spindle when putting the drum back on. I am concerned about grease entering the brake shoe area. 50mm Nev-R-Lube inspection

Expert Reply:
The great things about the 50MM Nev-R-Lube Bearing for 8,000-lb Dexter Axles part # 31-71-3 is they do not require grease. They are a bearing, race and seal built into one pre-greased from the factory. You can use a very small amount of anti-seize grease to get the hub back on the spindle but that is all the grease that you will need.
