grease leak from front hubs
I have driven my car about 50 miles and notice that grease is slinging from the insides of the front hubs.
I used the Ford Racing Cobra R brake/axle kit and followed the installation instructions provided. No mention is made of a bearing seal having to be supplied seperately so I assume that the bearings supplied with the kit are sealed. Has anyone had a similar problem or any idea what my problem could be? Thanks Rob |
mustang II brake hubs take a grease seal and wont last very long with out one.

The SN95 Hubs have sealed bearings, but as delivered have a large amount of anti-sieze on the surface where the wheel attaches (around the wheel studs). If you didn't clean most of that off before mounting the wheels, it ooozes out & is then flung onto the inside of the wheel as you drive.

Thanks. I don't think it is the anti sieze issue as the grease is oozing from between the stub axle and the hub (inner bearing). Could I have over-greased on assembly perhaps?
