Dura Hubs

There was a thread started about these a couple of months ago. They lubricate trailer bearings using an oil bath and I am wondering if they do what they are supposed to do. Are there any more reports?

I have been using them for about 6 months now & I have had no problems with them. I cannot verify the 10% claim on fuel consumption as traffic in Sydney is always crappy.

It is very easy to see if anything does get into the hub but so far nothing has.

I finally bit the bullet and bought some. #:) :) :) :) :)
$99 for the kit #:o :o :o :o :o
Fitted one side like a beauty :) :) :) :) :)
Stuffed the oil seal when i was fitting the other side because I've got two left thumbs :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(
Went back to shop and young fellow says cant buy another seal, have to buy a whole kit #:( :( :( :( :(
Emailed the manufacturer asked for spares advice and they send me two seals for nix :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)
All fitted now and looking good ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)

If you can't buy the seals from the place that sells the whole kit, but you'll get them at any bearing supplier for a few dollars.

Had 'em on for a few mths & all going well so far.
