Anybody now the operating rpm's of the ilders?

This info would help me as it WILL solve the problem of the grease being blown out the bearing. I think the oem bearings are just being spun to fast.

I never knew the bearings in the idler pulleys has any oil in them??

Any way doesn't the cobra use the same Idlers as the Lightning and the cobra revs a lot faster than our trucks.

Usually the only reason a bearing will seep grease out is because they were over greased. If they sound fine, as in no bearing damage, like from damaged grease shields they should be fine and stop seeping within a few days.
