my rear rockwell that has the ctis style wheel bearings and I have one of them that is leaking grease. Any Ideas, these bearings are hard to find and expensive as hell!! Looking for any ideas in how to solve this issue. Thanks
My right rear CTIS is doing the same thing (left side just alittle). I can't tale if its from the hub (which shouldn't be b/c I installed new bearings in October) or from the rectangular bracket welded to the axle for air supply to hub. It'll be atleast a week before I can really check b/c I had shoulder surgery last Wednesday. Yes, most everyone's very proud of those bearings ($400-950ea., crack prices). I did find a place that sales them brand new at a normal price. If you have CTIS front you can mill the plate off the front spindle so ya can use regular A2 style bearings (look in my "RELEASE THE KRAKEN" build thread. Let me know what ya come up with & I'll do the same.
this may sound crazy, but would you be better to swap out a conventional rear rockwell if you had to buy bearings? you can find a rear rockwell for around $200. it wouldnt be that much work.
