If you want to, you can remove the grease with a degreaser and\nrepack.  Unless it was used constantly spinning, I don't think it could be\nworn-Just weathered grease.  If you go to an auto supply place, you will\nfind the wheelpacking high temp type and it will work fine.  Replacing the\nthrust bearing probably would be the best way to go.  It shouldn't be bound\nup at all and free to rotate.  It IS supposed to support the mast to\nalleviate pressure on the rotor.\nYour call since you are doing this.\n73,\nDee, NB2F\n \n\n-----Original Message-----\nFrom: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On\nBehalf Of Stephen E. Belter\nSent: Wednesday, June 01, 2011 8:20 AM\nTo: [email protected]\nSubject: [amsat-bb] Thrust bearing maintenance\n\nI have an Yaesu GS-050 thrust bearing that has been installed for about 15\nyears.  The thrust bearing turns, but requires a lot of force.  \n\nI disassembled the thrust bearing to find that the grease is very sticky\n(think candy apple sticky), and not lubricative (if that is a word).  \n\nShould I take it to an auto repair shop and ask them to degrease and then\nlubricate similar to repacking a wheel bearing?  \n\nWhat kind of grease should be used?\n\nThanks and 73, Steve N9IP\n--\nSteve Belter\n\t\n\n\n_______________________________________________\nSent via [email protected].
