For the general use bearings? (eg wheel bearings) Those always get dirty quickly, and I just clean them up, re-oil and put them back in. I have many 8x16 bearings that are over a yr old in my trug and my Sav and I've had to replace only a couple that were not smooth after a (sorta) regular cleaning. Damn things do get expensive after a while, but my $3 bottle of bearing oil has lasted me for 4yrs or so now and there is plenty left. My cans of WD-40 get rusty before they are empty usually. lol
