For General Information on Lucas Hub Oil:

Never asked why or why not, but when recently asked, the Lucas Oil Co. Technician emphasized adamantly that Lucas "Hub" oil was "not" recommended by Lucas Oil Company to be added in any amounts to Model A Ford transmissions.

He reported that Lucas Hub Oil was specifically designed as a stop leak product, very sticky, with heavy mass, to stay on axle bearings & hubs in case axle seals failed & leaked lubricant.

Really no big deal -- printed oil manufacture's recommendations are always followed about as well as the cigarette manufacturer's warnings printed on the cigarette pack.

And ............ people will always smoke!
