Default Bearing grease for rear

Should I pack these bearings on the worm drive rear with grease when I reassembly the rear. If so what type grease should I use. Also what oil should I use with the bronze gear in this rear. I don't want to destroy another rear . Thank You

use the 600w that the suppliers sell, just make sure it is compatable with bronze. I dont think you need to pack them with grease, the oil is like tar and after it gets flung aroound it sticks to the parts
