I've recently heard something that surprised me about rear wheel
bearings: Some of them may be subject to failure even when visual &
manual inspection says they're still serviceable. It's possible that
most of the reported failures are due more to the bearings themselves
than improper servicing, as we tend to suspect. Not wanting to bias
any data, I'm not going to mention brand names.

Please, if you've had/have a rear wheel bearing failure, try to
determine the brand of the failed bearing and report it here. If some
brands are failure prone, we need to know it and cull them out of our
coaches. I'll try to catch all the reports and tabulate them
somewhere.
