I was thinking about the wrecking yard hub but I figure it would have been around 90.00. I figure I will be at 60.00 for six bearings. I was thinking having the four extra bearings around might help someone here who is rebuilding thier hubs and run into bad bearings. I was very surprised at the rust that was in the hub. The Ex has only been in NC and FL so no salt except what is in the air from the ocean.

The previous owner probably ran it in deep water more than once.

I may be the guilty party on the water. Here in FL we get heavy rains where it will flash flood the roads. Also a hurricane came through here went through water about an inch under the driver window. Which reminds me I should change oil in the diffs.

If water gets in the hubs it can stay in there. Take a look at the vents on the diiffs, they have an anti flood tube if I remember correctly.
