    thrust bearing ?

    What type of grease and how much do I need to use in a new set of thrust bearings for a 4020?
    Thanks,
    Scott

    I just use a good quality, water proof wheel bearing grease.

    grease

    Must trust bearings are packed with kluber grease,it is expensive but good high end grease that will last.most new bearings come prepacked with grease already in it.
