Under normal maintenance do you just degrease and re-grease the bearings with out removing the races?
Yes
Thanks for the advice.

you may get away w/ reuse, but the one side looks pretty bad- like it would not let the race seat fully. not good. I suspect this could be the reason for failure. or contaminated grease- dirty job?
I always clean up my hubs and spindles(where the seal rides) w/ fine emery cloth. get it in a 1" wide roll at the plumbing dpt of most big box home stores
I would try for a used one. If you cant find it local, I have used Uneedapart.com. or post in classifieds- someone will help you out.
