That was heavy but easy enough until I found a lot of grease on one of them. The grease of course was coming from the S cam, got the kit and replaced the seals and also the oil seal. Looks and I hope that I did a good job (wouldn’t want to do it again!) I’ll keep an eye for leaks, slacks re-adjustments and wheels torque.

There is another small problem I would like to have your advice , my air recycle valve (the one on the AC/heater panel) is not working properly, I can hear it closing but it won’t stay closed, do I have to replace it or is there a way to fix it?

Thanks again for all your help y Feliz año Nuevo amigo!!!

did you pull the hubs... or just drums?

what make/model truck?

there could be something blocking closing of the fresh air door?

I only pulled the hub on the one I replaced the S-cam bushings. I checked the play on the other S-cams and they were not too bad so I left them alone.

As far as I can see there is nothing blocking the air door, and as a matter of fact, it was working not too long ago.
