What Ken said.

Now if you want to go crazy.. the procedure is to loosen the axle nut, push the cv/stub shaft inboard so there is space between that and the seal. Then pump mobile 1 grease
In there(red). Until all the older black grease is out and you see fresh red grease.

Clean up big mess and retorque/install the stub shaft nut.

They usually say match the original 25,000 mile bearing service, but there are people that will claim if knuckles are rebuilt to correct specs(lenzi does this as well as
Applied and maybe others), you can go further. JimK i have heard say 75,000 miles. And I know there are some lenzi front ends with more
Then that between greasing.
