Rowski.. yes.. if the seal is outboard of the bearing, then the bearing is getting spalsh lubed, and the seal is seperating the bearing/oil from the exterior environment.. and apaprently the grease on top of that to protect the exterior face of the seal..
After seeing this extra info it does make a difference. I was thinking like DP that it was a stationary fitting at the end of the axle trumpet.
After hearing that the bearings are splash lube.. I like the design much better.
It must be #10 that is the outboard seal that the zerk # 4 is lubing the face of.. etc. Unless I'm seeing it wrong.
