Expert Reply:
Greasing by hand is what we recommend instead of using the EZ lube fitting to pump in grease. Unfortunately its' too easy to overfill hubs with grease using the EZ lube fittings which then blows out the seal. LMX Red grease like the part # L11390 is a really great option that's heavy duty and waterproof. I attached a vid on packing hub bearings for you to check out as well.
