Colin,

This is the first time I have heard of an incident like yours, and I have
been on the List for over 3 years.

I sure would be suspicious of how the P.O. "repacked" the wheel bearings.
Technique and type of grease used would be at the top of my inquiry.

Sometimes luck is what life is all about.
