Wheel bearing grease
Tried the search already, probably typed in the wrong thing.
Who makes the best wheel bearing grease? Pelican does not seem to sell grease, or I just can't find it. I saw a thread that recommended Lubro Moly LM47, but that is CV grease. It claims it can be used on bearing also. So what are y'all opinions on wheel bearing grease? Thanks for your time.

I was told it didn't matter too much, so I used the Valvoline Multipurpose grease for "european" cars. It is a lithium based grease, and is dark red in color. The previous owner had green stuff in there. This was back in March when I was superNewbie.
So I am interested what the Pelicans will recommend.

Any quality high temp grease that has wheel bearings as an application will do the job.

Yes, it will say EP (extreme pressure).
I'd go for a synthetic or for Swepco. But nobody knows what grease is really better...
