To pursue (2) further, is there any way short of disassembly to verify adequate lubrication of the wheel bearings? I've read that it's possible to jam grease in through the plugged opening on the hub carrier, but that it's a reach to expect this to reach the bearings in any meaningful way.
You can add grease to the hub carrier through that hole but it won't get grease down into the wheel roller bearings where it needs to be.

Can you elaborate on the "loose axel nut problem" you had? That may be related.
