New York bound with wheel seal woes - plus VMSPC screen shot

Good to hear.
If you are in a discount auto parts store at any time have a look for a cheap infared thermometer. I like to use mine on all kinds of vehicles. I try to remember to check the hubs on all 4 corners when I make a rest stop. Gives me an opportunity to stretch my legs and when I perform my circle check I check the hub temps. Not so much for the actual temps because the really cheap thermometers are oh sooo accurate but rather I am looking for a temperature differential from side to side. It just raises a red flag if the one side is 100+ degrees hotter than the other. That and it opens up the door for all kinds of tall tales to tell when someone sees me pointing my "laser gun" at my wheel hubs.

I've adjusted hundreds of wheel bearings on cars, but I found transferring that experience to the giant parts on the bus hub didn't work.  I got the adjustment on mine way out the first time I did it.  I found the amount of torque needed to seat the bearings way higher than I was expecting, so I ended up too loose.  Thankfully my seals survived and I lived to adjust another day...
