Is there any kind of cleaning or greasing that can be done to manuel
hubs to exstend the life of them???
I do off road once in a while but not really much in deep water
which requires more often maintnance
Just figgured i ask JC

 

 

Is Manuel Hubs related to Shop Manuel?

 

Considering my 78 Bronco has the original hubs I would tend to tell you they are near bullet proof.

Simple common sense maintenance when they have been run in water (which includes checking the gear oil in the pumpkins) and regular scheduled maintenance keep them working fine.

Your universal joints on the front end have a far shorter life than the hubs if they are ignored too.

 

I would be careful greasing the hubs. The grease might get too stiff in cold weather and not let them engage.
