Question:
Hello - I have dual Lippert 8K spring axles on my toy hauler. Part No. V000468561. They are oil bath hubs. Can it be converted to grease?

Converting oil bath hubs (like what you have on your Toy Hauler) to grease hubs is just a matter of cleaning out all of the existing oil, and then using a high-quality grease like # L11390 to re-pack the hub and bearings. It can get a little trickier when going the other way (grease to oil bath), but changing to grease doesn't require any other components.
You might also be interested in the Bearing Packer # PTW1218 to help with this process. I have attached a short video demonstration that you may find helpful.
