Stop in for a cup of coffee

I don't think my spindles even have zerks. Especially for home use, a lot of stuff really doesn't need it. Something else goes before the grease. Over years of doing maintenance, I couldn't tell you how many times I have taken something apart to find out it has sealed bearings -after greasing it for years. :BangHead:

I'm not sure why there's zerks on these spindles because I think the bearings might be sealed as well. One thing I know is I've had several spindles fail in 4 years, maybe not that high of a casualty considering all the rocks I've hit so yeah, all the failures weren't the bearings, cracked housings etc.
