Gone through a couple RF wheels bearings in the last 8 months.
Figuring it's either the hub or the spindle. Dust cap has a dime-sized hole in it (which I know, I know, should have replaced already) but I don't think I put enough miles on the car over winter to have it eat a Timken bearing in 4 months.
Trying to figure out what's more likely -- spindle being messed up or the hub? Spindle *seemed* fine when I replaced the last bearing, not pitting/scoring that I saw, and the inside of the hub seems ok too.
Prob gonna snag an oem bearing from a 4 lug hub, replace the dust cap, and see how long it lasts, just trying to plan for after that. I suppose the dust cap could fix it, but I am doubtful.
