Be careful when you pump the grease into the hub assembly, if you Get it "full" of grease it will get hot and expand from the heat build up of the bearings. When that happens it will blow the seal out and grease will wrap up the back side of the rims. If you have ever saw boat trailer rims that were full of grease on the back side it is because of people putting to much grease in them and there is no room for expansion from the heat.
