[QUOTE="muzikman, post: 382192, member: 15075"] Like a couple others here, I have always used high-temp red bearing grease (Valvoline) for many years with no issues. The back of the hand test described is a good rule of thumb, as not everyone will carry an infrared thermometer with them. When you repack those bearings , just before you put that cap cover on, fill THAT with grease also as an added extra barrier against water intrusion. This has worked for all my trailers for many years. :wink: [/QUOTE]
