Oiling versus Grease in the front hubs....

Oiling versus Grease in the front hubs....
So I know that the front hubs need oil in them, not grease on the bearings and the Hilliard.
My question is though, and the manual doesn't clarify, do the first 2 bearings that are in the "strut" need greased?
It seems that the seal on the hub that goes on the outside of the coil would contain the oil to the hub only.
Am I wrong for thining this, and therefore I would need to grease the 2 strut bearings??
Thx

Demand drive hub fluid in hubs only,it lubricates the 2 strut bearings,hilliard and 2 hub bearings! NO grease on bearings,it will mess up awd action. Yes there is u-joint grease,BUT its mostly lithium based and use can use any good lithium based grease for all grease fittings. U-joints deping on model have grease fittings,cv joints have grease inside protected by the rubber boot.
