I've just finished rebuilding my diff after putting a minispool and 3.89's in it, and I didnt think to put any bearing grease on the bearings at all. What I want to know is if they are self lubing? Obviously the bearings at the centre end of the axles will get plenty of oil, but will the oil travel down the axle to the bearings at the hub end?

The bearings should have come pre-greased.
