John,
Do you know if it was the same for TR3s?

Hi, guys
I was delving through my earlier copies of your ramblings today when I
tumbled across some threads about what sort of lubricant to use in
rear hubs. Whatever Mr Haynes or Mr. Bentley (whoever he may be) have
to say on the matter, the lubricant for the rear wheel bearings on
these cars is 90W axle oil. If they were supposed to be greased, we'd
have put a grease nipple on that housing when it was being made. When
your cars left Coventry, they all had either a 3/8" or possibly a
5/16" bolt acting as a plug.
