When I went to change a flat front tire today, I notice the hubs were really hot oon both front tires. I have automatic locking hubs. Even the lug nuts were too hot to touch for very long. Is this normal? I just replace my wheel bearings and I know that the locknut it put on to the correct torque. Thanks for reading this.
 






it is from the excessive heat build up of the brakes that explorers are known for....
