Smear as much as you can on the bearings themselves, put the rest in the tunnel in the drum.

dont put too much in or they will over heat.

put a big blob of grease in the palm of your hand, then scrape the bearing backwards along your hand all the way round the bearing, do both of them cus theyr'e taper bearings then put a bit in the hub, they overheat if you overtighten the nut, just do it till there is no free side to side play in the drum then put the pin through
