I've never been hooked on any specific brand of grease. I usually just grab whats on the shelf at our local farm and fleet store. Some will probably take issue with that, but it has worked for me for many years. Never burned up any bearings either.

Don't know why, but I use a marine grade grease made by Lucas Oil. My buddy with his 9000lb boat suggested it and I have used it since.

I use Mystik JT-6 Hi-Temp with Moly. It is very good grease, I use it on my boat trailer and enclosed snowmobile trailer also and have had zero issues. I do recommend using the same grease each time you repack bearings. Different grease may not be compatible. If you replace the bearings and races you can switch grease brands at that time. Just my opinion.

I use Mystic---the red kind----I imagine any
major brand will be ok, I always make sure
it specifies for wheel bearings, what I call just
regular grease I do not use in wheel bearings.

I've been using Lucas Red n Tacky #2. It satisfies the requirements for my Tundra's u-joints and the trailer wheel bearings. That way I can have just one grease gun for the rig.
