Is the assembly of the rear hubs (from cotter pin in) the same as the fronts? I've read a couple people in here saying that running with these caps expose the rear wheel bearings to grit. If the assemblies of the rears and the fronts, which don't have the caps, are the same, then grit shouldn't be an issue. So is there anything different about the rears?

Thanks.

 

i've had my caps off since the day i got my car...about 2 and a half years, and no problems whatsoever.

pound away :hammer:

 

i had the rears of for 1yr with no problems.

 

Took mine off 2 years ago. no problems here either
