Alright I have done everything to try to solve this problem. No matter what I do I still get water in my Hubs. I have replace all the seals. Do they make some special grease for better protection against water? I was thinking about some marine type maybe but I am not sure if it would handle the heat from the brakes and stuff. Anyone got any good ideas let me know.

I run marine grease in my front hubs with no problems. I do have the same sealing problems you do tho. I even ran a bead of gasket goop around my hubs. I saw two possible problems still: 1) even with new hub seals, the water pressure was probly enough to get past the seal.....2) the hub's dial wasn't sealing properly. I took my superwinch hub's seal for the dial sucks - needs an O-ring like the Warn's<br><br>Bottom line is, you're pretty much gonna have to commit to repacking the hubs anytime you hit the water that's hub-deep.....don't forget about changing the gear oil in the diffs
