best wheel bearing grease for TH with zirk/greasable hubs

Well, we'll just have to agree to disagree on that one. :)

It will

Hasn't happened yet. :)

Don't use grease fittings, you will blow out the seals.

Been using Dexter EZ-Lube fittings for many years, never had any trouble. Just use MANUAL grease gun, pump slow, and turn wheel while doing it. I use Mobil synthetic wheel bearing grease.

Thanks for pointing that out Dr.. I was wondering if I could save time each season with a zerk caps.

A don't know about everyone, or what the recommended service intervals are. I don't believe you need to be replacing bearings and seals all the time. Iv had good luck carefully removing everything except the seals. Check the brakes. Cleaning, Re-packing and good for another 5000 miles.

I use the zerk fittings with no issues, as do lots of other people. People rarely post on a forum how well their grease fittings are working, and their trailer bearings didn't fail today. :)

I use Lucas brand Red and Tacky. What a great grease for bearings.

I use standard Wheel bearing grease most of which are considered high temp. I personally like Mystic JT-7.
