Took off my front wheel today so that the Dealer could install my new PR3 for $22 (very fair IMHO)
I include a pic of the old tire (6700 mi) but what was odd was the wheel bearings. They looked
underpacked to me. Maybe I am just old and have false memories but my dad, the GM engineer and
my aircraft mechanics school taught me different. Anyway, I pulled the two dust covers on each side and
repacked them.....does the bearing as found looked underpacked to you?
old tire which I kept to practice plugging with...
Bearing before repack
Bearing after repack but before dust covers
