Are Front Wheel Bearings Serviceable (re-greaseable)?
I am a big believer in doing preventative maintenance to avoid future headaches. The front wheel bearings in my '01 ZR2 are not acting up at all but the vehicle has almost 77K miles on it so I wanted to clean the bearings and repack them with some good synthetic redline grease.
It appears these have a whole hub assembly with the bearings inside of them. Is it possible to get to the bearings to re-grease them?
Thanks!

So, GM's plan is, you install it and just wait for it to go bad? LAME.
A properly maintained, cleaned and lubricated bearing can last a LOOOOOOONG time. *Shakes head at GM with disgust*
