John you probably read my post on "Buffalo Bearings".I learned too late that if I put too many pumps of grease in the bearing that the excess would break my seal.Now I have 215 hours of moderate usage and when I drive in sloppy mud I get real muddy water in the tub both damaging the bearings and putting grit around my chains and sprockets.Also when swimming or drifting it takes in too much water to remain comfortable.When I first got it only slightly used I was sure it had never been greased and it would take in about two quarts of water in about 45-60 minutes quite tolerable.
I'm concerned now and want to change the bearings out so I can seal that mud and muddy water out.I also use tracks a lot in the winter and I know they stress things too.I have been told when greasing bearings one-two pumps ONLY.
