I ordered a new housing bearing for my 07 AR230 from TITAN via Amazon. Does anybody know if the bearing comes prepacked with grease?

The bearings themselves I would assume they are greased when they are packed together and put together. The housing itself does not come with grease in it. You have to put some in via the nipple, or look up what others have used to put in there for the rubber seal. Just be careful putting grease in the housing with a grease gun, you can ruin the seal by putting too much in it.

Yes - I would assume these are packed with grease when assembled. I'm going to hold the housing bearing in hand and connect the tube and the zerk fitting at the other end and slowing add grease and feel the rubber seal, but goal in to ensure tubing has grease....Yes over greasing is not good for the bearing or rubber seal, that's why I'm asking.
