While it might sound strange, in this video I explain why I always add grease to brand new sealed bearings before installation. I also re-pack them if I've used them awhile.

I'll show you two different methods to accomplish this task.

This has saved us a lot of money over the years.

Works for any sealed bearing, not just garden tractor bearings. For example, I always add grease to the idler and tensioner pulley bearings on our vehicles.

If you think this is too much grease, fair enough...add less or it flush out the bearing with new grease and scoop a bunch out/work it out with a rag. Surely we can agree that flushing out the out dirty grease and grime from a used bearing will make it last longer.
