Do you think that the reason you have to grease them so often is that you have stuffed the seals on them by forcing grease out of the ends. That is, the seals are there to stop crap getting in the bearings, if you force grease out of them it forces the seal away from the cap. Once you have done this it allows the crap into the bearings. You just keep on coming up with this really good advice. I just hope that not too many actually listen to you.
