[QUOTE="CedarRiverScooter, post: 471708, member: 15465"] Definitely take the hub off, Tap seal out, inspect both inner & outer bearings. If you replace the bearings, replace the races too. Its not hard, just need to get a long punch to catch the inside edge & tap evenly around the circle. No need to replace the entire hub unless it is damaged somehow (pretty rare). Bearing buddies help the bearing by keeping the water out - positive pressure during the launching cool down. Good luck [/QUOTE]
