[QUOTE="raider, post: 28470, member: 353"] truth... i hate bearing buddies... they give a false sense of security, while building pressure and blowing out seals... like davy said, push/pull on top of tires once in a while to check for tightness... if there is noticeable play, jack up, pull the cap, remove the cotter key or bend down the locking tabs, and tighten the nut while spinning the tire/rim until it slows the spin... if it stops the spin, back it off one notch and re pin... if the insides of your rims are clean of grease, no need to repack more than every 5 years if you keep them tight... a hub is a sealed system, much like the motor on your truck... you would never just add a quart of oil every couple months and assume everything will be fine...
