"Scott 85" said that he added grease to his bearings once a month. I have worked on vehicles for over 55 years, and contrary to what some people think, "BEARINGS DO NOT COMSUME GREASE". Now you may loose a minute amount if a seal leaks a bit, but not enough to cause a bearing to fail. More problems will be created from over greasing.
So please tell the right way. I was never taught a right way or a wrong way. My once a month was normally a pump until I saw grease. What problems are created by over greasing? When I put grease in once a month it was normally done just to add fresh grease. How long does it take before grease starts to breakdown?
