I like my EZ-lubes just fine.
As for where the grease expanded from temperature goes, that little rubber boot in cummins pic expands outward. Pops back in when the pressure drops.
I use any good lithium based wheel bearing grease. And even though I don't have disk brakes, I still use the disk brake grease, because it is a high temp formula.
You don't have to remove the cap sleeve to add grease. That little rubber boot pops right out.
This is pretty much the same that I do and same type of grease. Has worked fine for me. I enjoy not having to pack the bearings by hand. I've been doing that for nearly 50 years, and still have to on my old gooseneck with Dexter 8K axles. They were originally oil bath, but switched to grease when I couldn't keep oil in due to only occasional use and flat spotted seals.
