Does The Kodiak Disc Brake Kit K2HR858DE Use Grease Or Oil To Lube The Hub Bearings?
Question:
Is the K2HR858DE disc brake kit made for oil or grease lube?
asked by: Larry A
Expert Reply:
The Kodiak Disc Brake Kit # K2HR858DE is able to be used as a grease lube hub or a oil lube.
The Bearing Kit # DBRKHW850 will provide you with bearings, oil seals and lug nuts needed for the Kodiak kit to use as a oil bath hub. The Kodiak Synthetic Bearing Oil for Oil Bath Hubs # XLPROLUBE will better work to keep the bearings lubed. I find that it is also easier to service as you can physically see the oil in the hub.
The Bearing Kit # DBRKHW85G will provide you with the bearings, grease seals and lug nuts for the Kodiak kit. This will allow you to lube your bearings with Grease # L11390.
I do recommend keeping an extra Cap # KPCAP or 2 on hand incase one becomes damaged.
