| Yep, you are getting grease past the seal. Maybe came out when you added, but why did you have to add so much in the first place. My guess is the seal is failing, or getting close to failing. Once you have things apart, and the bearings are clean, inspect them carefully for rust, pits, overheating. Do not mix bearings from different wheels. Do one wheel at a time to avoid mixing them up.
Some shops put Permatex(RTV) on the mating line formed by the seal and the hub. You would not put anything on the lip of the seal. Also, make sure you get double lip seals. | |
