I'm unable to get to my owners manual for a week or so and I am wondering what type of service is required on the front wheel bearings on a W-20 chassis.

I have an '04 Brave with about 26,000 miles and have not had the bearings serviced. Are they sealed maintenance free bearings or do they require repacking?

We're leaving on a 2 month trip in about 6 weeks and I'm just trying to get everything squared away before we leave.

Thanks for the help.

Thw W20/W22/W24 use an oil bath system. Just pull the wheel cover and check the sight glass. You can download the WCC chassis manual (10meg in size). You must be logged in to do the download. Link Here
