I might have mentioned this upthread, but I managed to get several years of foul weather use out of one of these, but I did disassemble it and fill with semi-fluid grease to begin with. So all is not lost if you don't mind a bit of intervention
I was more miffed that the bearings are not a standard size, so replacements are quite expensive, and you still have the old external seals in place, so I felt it was not economical to repair.
