Wheel bearing greese?

[jmwuva05]

Any tips on what type to use? How much should be applied to the front and rear? this is my first time dealing with such tiny hubs my previous experiences have been with 3/4 ton dodge axles.

I've been using Mobil 1 grease in all my cars for some time as long as you use a quaility grease you should have no problem you don't need to overfill the hubs it will leak and possibly overheat them just some in the cavity and pack the bearing by hand or a packer

The rear is lubricated with rear-axle oil, so no need to pack it. Just be sure your rear axle isn't low on oil. The front hubs will do fine with any good-quality wheel-bearing grease; I used Castrol, recently, just because it seemed right. So far, no leakage, heating, or similar problems. Mobil 1 is very good stuff too. Just work it in well, use plenty but don't go nuts, and it should be fine.

I just got done doing the front bearings last week and I used the grease that came with the bearings in little 500ml* packets. It's a very light colored grease, but looked pretty generic. I only ended up using one packet for both the front wheels, as the bearings were pre-packed. I just packed as much as I could in each bearing and very lightly coated the area where the spacer goes. I havn't had any problems yet!

*---Sorry, it was 40 mg, not 500ml!
