Replacement Bra for Bearing Buddy Bearing Protector
Question:
Hi, With the bra coming off and mud getting into the barrel of the Bearing Buddy, will the Bearing Buddy and bearings need to be taken apart and cleaned in case grit got into the bearings? Or is the Bearing Buddy designed to keep grit out, even when the bra is missing and mud gets into the barrel? Thank you.

Helpful Expert Reply:
The grease in your Bearing Buddy (and the grease behind it inside the hub bore) should have blocked any mud from actually entering the bearings. However, naturally you will want to make sure to remove all the dirt and any contaminated grease from the interior of the Bearing Buddy before re-filling it with your grease gun like # L30416.
