dana 44 question

Hey guys,

We started replacing a broken axle shaft on a buddies' ram charger yesterday and was surprised to find the bearing that supports the outer shaft!

It was completly dry, and the needles had mostly turned to dust!!


What do they call this bearing, and how can you effectivly keep it lubricated?? We're going to replace the seals and bearings but it still seems like a really stupid design to me!.

We also had a hell of a time seperating the spindle from the knuckle!!
