05+ front hub servicing

I realized after going through some decently deep mud I was missing a cap on the vacuum port of my hub on the 05 dana 60 axle. Naturally, the lockout was harder to turn and felt "dry" compared to my other one.
With the 05+ hubs. do i just pull it out, clean any crud, smack some grease in there, rub it into the lockout and away I go?
(PS i dont run the auto hubs)

Check YouTube for the disassembly video and you want to use a rubber safe cleaner so not to hurt the orings, then apply a thin layer of quality synthetic waterproof grease and then reinstall. Too much grease packed into the hub will hurt it's function
