I've got a 1961, 122 4 door that has been sitting for a few years. I'm going through the brakes and will be replacing the rear cylinders. While I had it apart I had a look at the rear bearings and realize there are a few things I don't understand. One is how is this bearing lubricated? It is an ENV axle. It spins ok, but is quite dry, with the residue of whatever lubrication was there. Can't see an obvious way to pull it and repack it. Looking at the parts manual I see a rear oil seal and I removed a felt seal and gasket to get a look. Whoever was in there last had used silicone sealant between the back of the brake housing and the plate holding the shims. What gives? How do I pull and repack this bearing before I put the brakes back together. Thanks in advance. Bill
