Grease on the paint?

[jmeehan]

I've had my truck for almost 6 months now and I'm still getting grease on the paint on the doors. I've read that the front wheel bearings ooze a little and I've been assuming that's what it's from. I just passed 6100 miles, can anyone tell me how much longer this will go on for? Or do I have a problem up front? I pulled and greased the caliper slides a couple weeks ago and everything looked good then.

The front wheel bearings ooze to the outside and that should trap into the center piece. Mine don't have any in there even and it has oozed to the outside of that big bolt/washer combination that holds the bearings in place. Are you sure you aren't picking it up from the road? Is it all over your rims or something? When I get on new asphalt, I'll get some splatters but that's all. I put Mopar molded running boards on they stopped everything except by the wheels.
