one day on my way home i see this 2 ton truck that i have seen being restored about 10 miles away stopped along the road i stopped to see if he needed some help and boy did he he had done the rear brakes and put it all back together with NO lube he made it 10 miles "he thought it oiled from the differential" yes and no it takes quite some time for 90wt to make its way to the hubs on big rigs they have pipe plugs in the hubs that you pull and fill with 90wt anyway back to what happened .....the bearings seized i had to go home get a cutting torch and carefully cut what was left of the bearings off of the spindle he was lucky it happened where it did and that it did not wipe out the spindle.... as for using grease once the 90wt makes it to the hub it mixes with the grease and the next time you pull it you would never know it had any grease added
