I need to replace my passenger side rear bearings. I have a set ready to go, but was wondering what type/brand of grease to use in the space between the inner and outer bearings and around the spacer? Would CV3 work? TIA

Bentley calls for multi-purpose wheel bearing grease for all wheel bearings. I am not sure any fancy grease works better.
