[QUOTE="driz, post: 458489, member: 13373"] Yup overgreased. That’s what that overflow vent is for. Bearing buddies work but they don’t exempt you from pulling and at least inspecting that outer race preferably at seasons end. If the grease is at all milky looking it’s advisable to repack them. During the summer months they keep moving around but over wintering I’ve seen rust started on the exposed surfaces by spring. You just can’t escape maintenance [-X with those old type greased bearings. [/QUOTE]
