I have used the "spacer on the axel" approach with great success for over two years. I found some tubing that just fits over the axel, and nearly fills up the inner bore of the wheel. It took a bit of work trimming to the correct length so that the bearings were tight -- or better said, not loose. About the same time I heard great things about Castrol Syntec grease. I used that also -- so it may be the combination. It has gone through 2 annuals (pack bearings) and several checks when it was on jacks for something else. Everything is great. By the way, I finally ran out of Castrol Syntec grease and can't find any in this area -- any out your way??
