I really want to believe these type of things but they have to make sense.
There has to be scientific cause for the effect.
There seems to be merit to these Micorblue claims that is why I find it interesting.
Just cant help being skeptical about any claim of this nature because there is usually zero credibility involved.
I however have a good feeling about this.

Just put Microblue aside and Google "REM" and "Tungsten Disulfide" and read up on both to better educate yourselves on the process and the science involved.
I expect this process and science will be way over the skeptics heads. -
I had mine checked at 550,000 as per Freightliner request and only 1 was bad but i changed them all

What is the cost difference for the bearings and races alone? Compared to a stock set of bearings for three axles.

Million miles I would be thinking about replacing the whole hub asm and starting fresh again .

When I was a o/o I could keep an eagle eye on every aspect of my truck and trailer.
What the fleets gained with better discounts I more than made up by making everything last longer.
I could tell you where , when and who was to blame for every little scratch on the deck of my low boy trailer.
Each bearing pre-load every little thing was held in my head or in maintenance notes.
With a small fleet no matter how many procedures and standards one tries to implement you can't come close.
By trying to force these procedures you just get BS , with costly results.
People just don't have the will or ability.
That is why you just replace at set times when a O/O may be able to make a saving by making a well considered decision.
