<DIV>Are you sure you are not just looking at the normally smooth portion of the
hub? Here's a random photo from a Google search:</DIV>

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Sometimes the grease from the splines can show marks in that smooth area
that look like the remains of splines (made as the wheel is dragged off through
the grease).</DIV>

<DIV>So I replaced a leaky inner tube on the front driver side tire today and
while putting the wheel back on noticed that about 1” of the outer splines had
worn smooth on the hub. The wheel looks normal inside and I hadn’t noticed
anything different lately. I will replace it asap, but just wondering what the
cause of this might be? I’m fairly certain it is the original hub. Thanks for
the help! </DIV><SPAN class=HOEnZb><FONT color=#888888>
