Front Hub Replacement
Does anyone have a recommendation on where to buy a new front hub for an NA? During last weekend's race meeting it was clear that the bearing is shot.

I know that Auckland Bearings do them quite cheap.
Repack with nicer grease and you should be good as gold. (I use Amsoil, REDBEN I think used some other stuff that he had but I can't recall the name).
Worth checking the type of grease seal they use on it; I know that the grease seal (hub side) of the ones from Repco aren't as good as the OEM factory units (they work fine but the design isn't as refined to put it in as few words as possible).
