Oil bath conversion??

Hey gang, I have a 2014 Salem TT. Been wondering if anyone has done an oil bath hub conversion. It has 5200# Lippert axles, 6 on 5 1/2 drums/hubs. Any thoughts on this?? Thanks

I was interested in this a few years back as some of our really heavy farm trailers had oil bath from the manufacturer.
What I read when investigating was that conversions could be problematic and caused as many concerns as they fixed. So I decided to just keep repacking mine.
Maybe the conversions have improved over the last few years.
