JustcallmeMrT:
What is this and how do I fix it?
Looks to me like dried up grease and a bunch of rust.  Should I be concerned about the bearings?  Can I polish up that  spacer in the second pic or is a replacement required?

Thanks!

Trigger:
It is a front wheel hub. You need to remove the bearing retainer (special tool need). Then remove the bearings. Not sure about the collar as it is dirt.

JustcallmeMrT:
The bearings still seem smooth and no play, so was hoping to avoid removing and replacing.  Would you recommend doing it as a matter of course while its all apart, or am I safe to leave it?

JustcallmeMrT:
Thanks for the heads up on the hub.

A nice surprise to find... glad I have 2 spares!
