I always remove the outer axles to grease the outer u-joint. I find it
usually pays to take the brake drum off to check stuff so it's no big deal
to pull the outer axles.  Plus you get to make sure the studs for the hub
attachment are not stripped. You can also use the opportunity to clean up
the brake dust.
