    Well since nobody has said anything bad about the Castrol synthetic diff oil, I'm going with that brand.

    Want to minimize down time by avoiding any issues if pressing the old bearings off the old flanges goes wrong. I'll also have the old flanges to play with, working on a setup to press the bearings off and on and save some money down the road.

    PS: you know I'm that guy that will, one day, up and buy a new frame for just in case... ;)

    Hmm... Good idea. So can you just leave the spindles on the truck, remove the flanges, and just throw in new flanges with the new bearings?

    I can completely picture you doing that! Haha :cheers:
