    Where is the hub leaking from? If it's leaking from the rear, it's most likely a rear seal and/or seal sleeve. If it's leaking from the front the hub my not be seated properly, or it needs a new O ring seal.

    Check out the Vault docs.

    They come off pretty easy. (Vault cap) I use a rubber mallet..spin the tire slowly and tap on the cap until it walks its self off..

    Took all of 30 mins. They sent me a rebuild kit with no questions asked. The hardest part was getting the rear seal out. I had to get a seal puller and it was still a pain.
