    Not sure. But as Long as you check it and you have a good level and its not leaking out. You're good.

    I put a regular oil cap on my grease hubs. That way I can check them

    Rule of thumb if you can put your hand on them after a gentle rolling stop its all groovy.

    Interesting. I always wondered how to tell if grease pack hubs were properly lubricated. I blew an oil filled trailer hub one time on this old piece of junk and caused a real mess. I started paying closer attention to that afterwards. I love it when I can see the proper oil level through a nice clean window cap.
