Cavity empty; did that once and the hub had a hard time turning. Imagine when the grease heats up and expands!! Put a small lip of grease on the edge of the cap to supply fresh grease to the smaller bearing.

All bolted up. Tighened the nut until I could barely wiggle the washer with a screwdriver. Can one tell when driving if it is too tight or too loose before a new bearing is ruined?
