Default grease comes out of axle nut

hey, i put my new bearing carrier on and followed the clymers manual, but the grease comes out on the axle nut...in the little gap that the stopper ring has. i was just wondering if this was normal or not because i really dont want to have to take it apart again. its a RAD dual row carrier. thanks

I worked on a friends Forman and repacked the wheel berrings and NO grease came out after re-assembly. Almost sounds like the seals are not seated correctly.

I replaced mine with a Lonestar several years ago. Still have a little grease coming out. It never bothered me, because I figure it drives the dirt out with it!

alright..sounds good then. i just wanted to make sure that it wasnt a sure sign of something messed up. the grease is supposed to come out, it said so on the RAD website..it rides fine and i put new grease in before everyride so hopefully its good.
