Anyone have experience with the aftermarket replacement spindles with zirks for the JD L110? Good? Bad?

Thanks!

My JD L110 as purchased new mower OEM non-greasable spindles bit the dust right after warranty. Went to JD to get replacements and they had zerks built into them. No problems since they ditched the lube-for-life bearing and went back to the lube once a season bearing. Philip.

I just replaced two spindles on my Scotts L2048 with those that have the greaseable zerks. They took about 30 pumps each to get full. Am unsure as to how often they will need to be re-greased?

Also, I changed the straight zerks with 90 degree fittings as they will be much, much easier to fit grease gun onto. Other than that; mower works/cuts as well as [if not better than] new.
