Expert Reply:
Yes, you should have no problems using an Oil Bath System, like part # XLPROLUBE1980KIT, with a number 84 EZ Lube Spindle, like part # TRU74FR.
A few things to keep in mind when installing an oil bath system. You will want to make sure that everything is sealed up properly because oil is a liquid and if you have a major leak you will lose your lubrication. When you install the body and cap you will need to make sure that it is installed all the way in your hub and is not crooked. If you start driving down the road and the body is crooked, centrifugal force could cause it to pop off and you will be without lubrication.
If you need replacement bearings for a number 84 spindle you can use the Kit # BK2-100 which has Outer Bearing L44649, Outer Race L44610, Inner Bearing L68149, Inner Race L68111, and the 10-19 seal which has an ID of 1.719 inches and an OD of 2.565 inches.
