I have been reading the vanagon.com archves for some time and heve not found any answer's to a question I have. I would like to remove the rear stub axles and service the rear bearings. I am finding out that a regular service schedule on the rear axle bearings will be an unpleasant job. The stub axle will have to be removed along with other items. Not a savory task. I had in mind to drill and install a grease fitting into the stub axle so at least once a year I could give the bearings a bit of high temperature, no washout, heavy duty grease just to make sure that they are properly lubricated. Does anyone out in the list see any problems with this modification the rear axles? Thank You, R. Cardo
