I honestly didn't know you could pack s13 wheel bearings, I thought they were sealed units lol.

Good point! They are technically sealed, but can be disassembled. I think it's only important when you expect to put a ton of heat into them like we do. I did actually video the whole process the last time I did it, so I can put together a "How-to" video.

The rears don't see nearly as much heat. I recently took apart our rears to replace as they are unknown mileage units we put on used, then raced for ~200 hours on them and they look just fine. Some of the grease is a bit brown, but most of it is still light colored.

Did you ever happen to put together that how to video? Was up way too early this morning and was thinking about this post out of the blue.
