I know, come on Jazda let's go back to the previous thread and leave these guys alone, you are out of your league if you want to start your sh** here

57MPH? You will save a ton on fuel but will have to keep replacing your ICC bumper from getting rear ended so often.

I for one find this thread interesting, also i have a racing history, i am very interesting in fuel economy. with some more reports from other's i'll be willing to try the bearings.
as someone who travels at 60 mph most of the time, i have never been rear ended, my dot bumper is fully intact. the statistics just do not support rear ended fears, yes they happen but not that often.BigJohn54 Thanks this. -
Me too, I'm very interested to try the wheel bearings on both truck and trailer, I don't think I'm gonna do the rear end though because I only have one drive axle and I don't know if the savings I could achieve is enough to take the truck off the road, if I just do the bearings I could do them myself with minimal downtime, I think it's definately worth a shot

Yes a great thread imo.
As I stated before Dice will get as much flack as praise for his efforts.
As they say tall trees catch the most wind.
Even if the Micro- Blue flakes off after 10 000 miles (not saying it will) , at least he had the 3alls and drive to try it.
Then post results for us all to see.
