Re: C20 Dana 60 Wheel Bearing Grease or Gear Oil?

When I put new bearings in my 68 I did it as per the manual . Lightly pack the bearing with grease . It keeps the bearing from being starved until the gear oil moves around to the bearings . I also parked the truck on a steep grade in my lawn so that one side was down hill then turned the truck around to get the gear oil into the tubes .
