Will i have to re-pack the bearings on a 97 disco (rear) when i replace the hub seals? I know there is an inner and an outer seal, but are the bearings self lubricating or do ihave to re-pack them? Also, how long should each side take to replace the seals, from start to finish? thanks for the input. |

There is only an outer seal on the 97 and yes i would repack them with a good quality grease. The outer seal is paper and you shuld also change the tab washer. Time me i am slow and get a bit anal, it take me about 30 to 45 per wheel, I have all the tools and a parts washer |

Correction on the seals for the 97 ther is an outer paper seal on the axel flange and an inner grease seal on the hub. pre ABS has a seal on both the inner and outer |
