Slick way to pack wheel bearings.

This may be old hat to some but for me i still pack my wheel bearings with grease in the palm of the hand, i ran into this today and thought i'd share....

>>>If you have a vacuum food packer, packing bearings is FUN and CLEAN!
Simply squirt some grease on the top of the bearing cone, and put it in a vacuum bag, pull suction, and as the vacuum sucks the air out, the grease will be sucked into the bearings!
Cool to do, fun to watch, and you don't get coated in grease while hand packing the darn bearings!<<<

Also a great way to leave a couple bearings sealed up and ready to use for trailers or what ever else.


Now if my wife ever finds out i'll really be in the dog house!
