Caution----Caution---If you remove the hub and want to put grease in the hub, that is ok,but....Only put about 3 "hub fulls" of grease in. If you put more than about 80% capacity in ,and you cannot tell how much is in there anyway, you will get a grease explosion. the grease will not have anywhere to expand, and it will rupture the seal and ruin yur new brake shoes.What a mess!I have been there,and cleaned up this nastiest of vanagon disasters.
