Question:
I purchased your preluded hub kit which came pre packaged with blue grease. I called and asked for the grease you use so I can get a tube to grease the zirc fitting. I was told to order the lubrimatic LMX grease, L11390 grease but that grease is red. Can the red and blue grease be mixed? I have already installed the hub kits. Thanks for the help.

Hi Doug,
The Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2K Axles # AKIHUB-440-2-EZ-1K uses a lithium complex grease so in this case the # L11390 would be compatible because they both share the same base. As long as the bases of the grease are the same they won't separate and breakdown.
