Compared to the roller and ball bearings in gas turbine engines automotive
wheel bearings have a very easy life.
The gas turbine bearings are cleaned and carefully inspected on reconditioning,
after many thousands of hours of operation, and most often returned to service.
Unless contamination, poor installation or adjustment or moisture has damaged a
wheel bearing it should nevef need replacing.
