OK, so, I am at 30k and about to take the VX on a 2000 mile drive.

Let's talk about the front wheel bearing repack. I have heard many mixed opinions about doing this service.

Please, help me out with some pros and cons. The questions I have so far:

1) How important is it in general to do this?

2) How hard is it to do for a mechanic? I am taking my truck in to have this sevice done, so I want to know what the potential is for a mech to mess it up and make them worse. Is it a straight forward thing to do if you have the experience and the proper tools?

3) If I do go ahead and have it done, what is the BEST product to lube the bearing with?

Any other info would be helpful. Thanks everyone.
