So I replaced the vacuum/oil seal and still have the intermittent grinding. I was under the impression that the hub was a sealed unit, but when I disassembled, I found some grease behind the hub...could the hub finally be going? I hope not, the cheapest I have found are 400 bucks. The hub unit has no play, but it does sound like it has some trash in it when I turn it by hand...
Any thoughts?

I have 3 14 hour trips ahead of me and no money for replacement, could I just put some grease in the ABS sensor hole and cross my fingers?
