    Vault Hub Replacement Video

    Seems to be a hot topic around the internet, here’s a video I posted for replacing vault hubs. Hopefully it can help someone out.

    Thanks for posting.
    So theres really nothing magical about these so called (un-serviceable) hubs other than the hybrid grease. I will say they have took the best of some old designs and mechanics tricks to put together a better mouse trap.
    I will question the (one time use) of front covers.. Was told the same thing with there oil filled hubs. Over a 12 year period I re-installed the same set 3 times just because I'm thrifty.. I did put red rtv silicone on them.

    I could be wrong but I think he had the PVC and then the wood, which is 1000 times easier than trying to hit the PVC in even by tapping around the edges, in my experience.
