How much grease in the Ez lube?
Typical greasing of the EZLube requires how much grease? Half tube? Quarter tube? Pushed a quarter tube in and nothing coming out. Almost half a tube in another. Can't be that much grease needed? ...

Yep, it takes a half a tube or so to get grease through it the first time. I think it's because they give it a couple squirts at the factory and call it good. It holds quite a bit of grease.
I just pulled apart one side of my triple axle after 4 years and about 18,000 miles and everything is fine so far. I had no grease anywhere except where it should be. I need to check the other side but see no reason it would be any different. The bearings look and feel good, not notchy, and no pitting or anything out of the ordinary.
When I greased mine I jacked up the wheel and added grease while spinning the wheel. Works for me. You really can't overgrease the hubs because the grease will come out the front of the hub like it's designed to do. You can put too much grease in too fast, and perhaps overwhelm the rear seal. Dunno.
I have had zero issues with mine. YMMV.
