Aren't the systems being discussed the bigger 42mm bearing with 12" drum brakes?
And this is the Dexter Axle home website https://www.dexteraxle.com/
We need to target specific parts to the OP's post and he's gone quiet.

A word of advice to those about to have warranty expire is pay to have brakes serviced and inspected before that happens.

You can press it out....unless it is spun in the hub..then hub is ruined

However, after just visiting Dexter’s website they are only showing brake drum assemblies with traditional bearings. No NevRLube. ?????

It appears the OP came in, lit a dumpster fire, and disappeared. They still haven't been logged in since they posted here.

Unfortunately a frequent occurrence, problem stated, lots of posts to help and no follow up by OP.
Terry we need a name for this but hopefully OP comes back and closes the post.

On Dexter’s website you will not find any hub/drum complete assemblies described as Nev-R-Lube. I was not able to find the 42mm bearings either. Do you have a link?
Thanks
Dave

Does it have to be Never or EZ? EZ Lube scares me.
What happens when the EZ hub gets overfilled with grease?

It doesn't...you just clean the old grease off and replace the hub seal.👍
Notice you spin the wheel backwards so you don't unscrew the fitting.

I guess I've heard to many stories from people who found grease on their brake shoes after the rear seal wore out or leaked.

Current production Airstreams use Nev R Lube on 23' and larger applications.
Airstream didn't know about the impending discontinuation of Nev R lubes, and neither did Dexter. Must be one of those double-secret things.

Still available?

Anyone else hear of this problem?
