good point on the hubs themselves. if they were worn, the race would spin.
In the case of the D60 on the honcho, I don't think the spindles are to blame as I've swapped in another pair spindles from the new D60. Same issue with them loosening up.
It's pretty frustrating to have to constantly check the wheel bearings. This affects all my rigs (except the lexus) and all my trailers (i have lost more trailer wheel bearings than you can imagine).
Maybe I will be better off converting to axles that have unit bearings and then carry spare units? That's mega $$$ though.
Or maybe if I get rid of all my jeeps and concentrate on building yota's, then the problem will go away too
