Lucas Oil 10088 Hub Oil - 1 Quart

Great product

I can’t believe how well this stuff works. I put it in the final drive for my shaft-driven motorcycle this spring because I had a progressively worsening leak that by the end of last season was slinging gear oil all over the wheel, tire, fender & saddle bag, and leaving a puddle whenever I parked. I was hoping to put off replacing whatever gaskets need replacing until I needed a new tire but with the rate it was leaking, I was concerned that I’d get oil on the rear brakes, plus the huge mess and having to top off the gear oil every few days. I bought the Lucas hub oil as a last ditch effort to avoid disassembling the back of my bike for a leak, then have to d it again in a few thousand more miles when I need another rear tire.. When I emptied the old gear oil and topped off the final drive with the Lucas hub oil, you could see oil seeping out of the housing while the bike was cold. I thought “man its gotten a lot worse over winter, it’s too late to fix this hemorrhage with a band-aid. Nevertheless I closed everything back up and cleaned everything with engine degreaser so I could asses how much was leaking. I could already see a droplet forming. Rode the bike 40 miles to work. Saw an oil spot on the pavement at lunch. “I guess I’m taking the bike apart after all.” Rode it around during my lunch break and parked in a different spot. Saw another oil spot the diameter of a golf ball after work. “This sucks!” Wiped the oil off with a paper towel and rode home. Parked in the garage, placed cardboard under the final drive to keep from dripping on the garage floor and made plans to work on it over the weekend. On Saturday morning I went to the garage and there was no oil on the cardboard. Curious. I felt around and couldn’t find any oil on the bottom of the final drive or any pieces of the frame a drip would have travelled to. I checked the oil level and it was still topped off. I’ve ridden it about 100 more miles since and checked again. There was enough that a paper towel didn’t come back clean, but I’m not entirely sure I didn’t just miss a spot last week when I wiped it with a paper towel at work. I’m really amazed at this stuff, I won’t be needing to take the bike apart before the tire needs replacing after all. Update: it’s been several months and I haven’t had a single drip since, and the area around the final drive is clean. I still cant believe what a night and day difference this stuff made.

Regular hub oils are like water so it sprays out like a sprinkler anytime you have a leak. This stuff is really thick. We all know the Lucas brand is always top notch. This my first time replacing the hub caps myself and I'm fully confident in its ability to hold up well. Another reviewer commented on how long it takes to cycle through, and that is true. So I made sure to keep checking it every hour or so and add more as needed.

Works great reasonably priced

As advertised— great for oil change in trailers with oil hub lubricant

GREAT VALUE

This is a good product I use it regularly in my new process 205 transfer case.

Using in a 1972 cj5 transmission , this stuff works!! Transmission is probably 70% quieter

recomended by a forum to cure a leaking shaft drive ,mines still leaking

I use this oil in wheel hubs of borrowed trailers when bearings are really loud. It gives me insurance that I will get there and I don't have to replace everybody else's bearings. The stuff can also be used in leaky transmissions or worn differentials as it is thick and slick. Wrong oil is better than no oil.

Produit efficace et budget abordable. A utiliser en 2 fois pour une meilleure efficacité. Je recommande ce produit et livraison rapide.

Can't go wrong with Lucas products. The hub oil is hard to find where I'm at so I'm grateful amazon was able to supply me with it.

The trailer manufacturer recommend 50 W motor oil for these bearings. However, this Lucas oil is purpose made for heavy duty wheel bearings. It is about the consistency of honey and should protect better from overheating and leaking. The thick consistency is the only problem with it. When you fill the bearing though the fill port, it takes several minutes for the oil to get though the outer bearing and fill the viewing cap on the end. If you don't wait for a loooooooooooooooong time for the level to equalize, you end up over filling it and have to take some out and that takes another loooooooong time. However, if you are patient, I think you will be rewarded with longer bearing life. Recommended.
