The options are, replace the front end parts with one of the kits which attaches components from GM built one ton trucks, or replace bearings and seals now and again, or modify the existing hub for a grease fitting - which is what Lenzi does. More importantly, he puts new metal in the bore and then takes it to spec size with a grinder, which results in a smooth continuous surface to interfere with the bearing outer race, which is much longer lived than the OEM which has very small hills and valleys due to being cut instead of ground. The result is a greasable hub which should last the life of the coach...
