Drive Axle Bearings & Seal
#1

I believe I mentioned in another thread that while trying to find all my air tanks I discovered that the left rear drive axle bearing seal wasn't and I had oil all over the inside face of the inner tire as well as the two concealed faces.  The brake pads are soaked and there is a line of oil on the wheel well.  I just finished disassembling everything and this is what I found, the spindle looks like it has been hot at some time (I'm not assuming it was this time since the bearings don't look that bad)       and the axle doesn't look like it has been hot.       The bearings feel and sound good but have some discoloration on the inside face like they have been spinning on the spindle         The races feel good but the photos seem to show some wear.           I'm going to replace the seal of course (and the soaked brake pads) I just wonder if what you see here justifies replacing the bearings?  My inclination is to replace them while I have everything apart, assuming I can find the parts.
