obviously, if there's no rocking on the wheel bearings and just friction grinding road sound then i will grease them. otherwise will replace them with beach balls ..

:P

Front taper rollers? 1/2inch paint brush and a small ceramic dish with an inch of petrol in the bottom.
Clean/examine/re-pack with high melting point LM (multi purpose grease) if in any doubt replace them. Remember taper roller bearings are NOT loaded and the outter nut should just touch.
