for clarity I should have said ".. they last for ages before I re-oil them"
I always check new bearings before fitting them and I have never experienced an XRAY bearing that has dried (of course now the next one will be!)

Hi Guys, when building the T4 it says in the manual to oil the bearings, these have rubber seals do you remove them or are the bearings already oiled? Thanks Nathan Wilson |

Just put the bearing oil onto the seal and as you rotate the bearing by hand you will see the oil disappear into the bearing. |

Hi This is my first post I have just purchased my first TC (moving away from 2WD Buggies) I purchased the T4 and am loving the look of it. I see in the manual about oiling the bearings so can someone recommend what oil to use. Cheers Mark |

I have always thought that new XRAY bearings are pre-oiled. I have never oiled my new bearings and they last ages. |

All XRAY bearings are pre-oiled so you should not oil them however XRAY suggests to check the bearings and if needed to oil them because sometimes it can happen that some bearing will dry. |
