Default Update

Still waiting on parts. Meanwhile I took the hubs off the otherwise good axle, now I see why they went bad. Bearing and races on left side looked good but the right side inboard bearing was junk. Several missing pieces off the rollers and rusted. Not as much grease in either side IMO. Water got by the seal and was working on the innermost bearings. Replaced races, cone bearings and seals but it looks like the three day weekend will be spent without the Wellcraft. My stupidity, I will just have to deal with it by using one of the others;-)
I knew this boat sickness that I have would come in handy, sometime.
