front inner&outer wheel bearings

Hi all. Super pleased to have found and joined Yotatech!! I have spent the last couple of weeks committing serious time theft reading numerous forum posts. I'll save the intros and what not until I can get some good pics of my new ride - 86 22rtec pickup. Here's a newbie question -

I'm currently doing inner and outer wheel bearings, axle seals, hub rebuild, lower ball joints..

I have removed the hub body and outer wheel bearing from - Once I remove both bearings (the outer already fell out) what kind of grease is used for the center - of the hub that turns on the axle? looks a lot different than the wheel bearing grease...
Also, does anyone have the link for purchase of a Toyota service manual as the haynes doesn't have any torque specs?

Well if you have made it this far - thank you.

You can use the same grease i n the locking hubs as the bearings, just a very light amount, like brush on a thin film. You do not want the hubs packed with grease as it can create a suction against the hub gear and keep it from locking or unlocking properly.
