Thanks Sourdough! I dug for quite a bit and couldn't find 1 253, but found a few places with the 253H at around $85 without pigtails.

Stuck Bearing

Okay... so I'm back with more questions for the seasoned pros. I gladly took the earlier advice to pull my hubs after greasing with the EZ Lube method. I'll say that I'm REALLY glad I listened. One...
