Location: Everton, Arkansas		I have one hub on our LQ that I can not keep the bearing cap on. Once you drive a 100 miles or so the cap backs off and you find it laying in the hubcap. I've replaced the bearing cap itself and still the same issue; after a few miles it backs off. Has anyone else experienced this? What are the chances that the hub itself was machined wrong..tapered or something?
