Wallace Hubs

[dave melton cst-7 5-4682]

My coach came with Wallace Hubs or so I was told and I removed the front
tires and the metal center dust cap looking for the grease fitting that the
Wallace Hubs is suppose to have, only found the axle nut. My question is do
I really have Wallace Hubs or not and if I do where is the grease fitting
located.

Thanks

Dave:

The grease fitting is not visible from the dust cap you removed. It is
located on the exterior side of the hub (i. e. parallel to the axle shaft).
Jack up the front of the coach and either remove the wheel and look on the
side of the hub for the fitting or crawl under and look for it behind the
wheel and tire.

Look on the hub itself, i.e. look on the inside from the front and use a
flashlight and you might find a grease fitting there. I don't have the
Wallace but have the grease fitting there when I had bearings done
initially.

If that ain't so, someone with Wallace's please jump in.

Dav,

The grease fitting is on the inner side of the hub.
