After pulling the bearings I discovered that my old bearings were in excellent condition and didn't need to be replaced. I replaced the bearings anyway and then the trouble began. After losing multiple bearing buddies I decided to just start over with new hub kits. That helped, but I still lost a couple bearing buddies.
I regularly squirt a little grease into my bearings and feel them often. Fortunately, my diligence has paid off so far.
I had the same thing happen a year ago. Do you do your own work Kent?
Sorry, I have been out of town (fishing for sturgeon). This was the first time that I did my own work.
At least you had no more issues after loosing a couple of the BB's, could be what the one member said about them being a slightly different size.
