Thread: Grease or use gear lube?

    Default Grease or use gear lube?

    I am doing rear brakes on a 1996 k2500 Chevy Rear 3/4 ton axle with a 10.5 ring gear with a limited slip. The question I have is on the bearings for the drum do you pack them with grease or do you just lube them up with 90w gear lube?

    Thanks!

    Did mine with just gear lube. After assembly, jacked each side up for half an hour to make sure the gear lube flowed to each end.
