I have this sneaking suspician that I'm about due to do something
about my wheel bearings.  In the back of my mind is this idea that
the wheel bearings on my '81 westy are sort of a "closed system,"
that is that they are supposed to be replaced with new units rather
than repacked with grease.  Can anyone confirm this?  Also, how
long should the fix last?  The cost?
