Thanks Clark. I was always under the impression that too much grease is nearly as bad as not enough grease. I have been told that too much grease inhibits the ability of the grease to flow and lubricate properly. You would have a whole lot more experience than I on that issue though. Ever have any issues with bearings after adding the extra? Do you set the bearings with a dial indicator? Curious on both questions.
Thanks again Clark - always good to get as much info as I can from someone who has done lots of them. I've only done a few wheel bearing repacks and always just went with what the manual says. That's why I like the 150g tube. You can get very close to the right amounts by squeezing out about 140 grams, then dividing that in half to get the 70 grams needed for each side.
