No. I'm replacing the axles, not repacking them. I'm tossing the old ones in the garbage. I really don't want to deal with the mess of repacking. I paid $150 a piece for used but good axles.

So I'm guessing these axles are as old as the ones you are replacing? Do you know how many miles are one them? So unless they have new boots and you can confirm that they are well lubricated, you may be doing this job again sooner than later. In other words, a few hours more of at least inspection, re-lube and new boots may prevent you from having to do this for another 10 years. But if the boots are old, they might tear next month...
