Truggy had about for races and the buggy had a half season on it. When I rebuilt them both for the season they felt fine and I relubed them. I know I should have just replaced them from the start. Kind of a pain to tear down the whole diff just to replace one bearing (since I will have it apart it will be both). Any advice on keeping them as clean as possibile while in car/ truck? I can blow tham out with air, but after that its not an easy place to get in to. Might try some q-tips next time.
