Rear wheel bearings.
So 2 months ago i had a slight mishap with my rearend. For some odd reason my limited slip decided it wanted to come apart on me.
Replaced the limited slip carrier with a posi locker. Cleaned out the hosing the best i could. Replaced wheel bearings and seals.
Fast forward 2 months. Have had no issues with the rearend till a week ago. Noticed new seals were leaking. Pull it all back apart to find out my bearings went out on me. Not just one side. But both. Truck is a daily driver. Driver an hour to and from work 6 days a week. So ive got a few thosand miles on the new bearing. Tried to stay off rough rounds. As much as possible. Not sure how the bearings could have gone bad this quick.
With the rear bearings the question is. To grease or not to grease. Wondering if the failure was do to not enough lube getting around the bearings.
First picture is driver side second picture is pass side.
