on my 300 u, I removed, cleaned, inspected and repacked the outer axle bearing. Got it put back in, and got a new oring to seal the hub to the inner bearing race. Here's my question, on the bearing cap it houses the axle seal(actually seals the hub, but same difference). Now out from that there is on full channel in the cap followed by another half channel. These are both outside of the oil seal. They are packed with stuff. at first glance the one almost looks like felt, but easily is falling apart, as parts of this stuff are missing. It breaks apart unlike felt. The exploded parts view shoes nothing besides the seal in this cap. Is it just 50 year old grease and grime and I';m just overly concerned? What is the point of these 2 channels? Should I clean them out? Thanks for any info.
