Nope, everything in the grease was just like new. It looked as if it had never been opened up.

I had used this in the restoration of a mere 4wd vehicle years ago, and the pressure of the jack certainly released the stuck drum, but warped the wheel, giving a shimmy. I'm satisfied in this case the CMP wheel rim is sturdy to withstand the pressure. It came off smoothly with no broken drums or skinned knuckles from swinging a hammer. Would it also work on a front drum?
