IIRC, a synthetic grease would be more compatible with what's already in the unit bearings. I wouldn't mix them. I'd have to back to the old thread to see what was deternined to be the best.

Timken used Exxon/Mobil Infinitec 152, but it's not available in smaller quantities. I went searching for a more-available grease that was similarly-rated and came up with this Delo greases.

For something readily-available, that's also very good, Mobil 1 Synthetic Grease is at most auto-parts houses.

Anything you use should be lithium-complex-based, and the use of any moly additive is debatable. Timken didn't, probably for a reason.
