Thanks for the reply.
I guess with that info, should I add more grease before putting things back together? If so what is the recommended grease type?

Probably a good idea to add grease but I didn't when I had some grease leakage and everything seems fine. Pelican sells the grease.

i used this:
Pelican Parts - Product Information: SWE-101

replacing the rubber boot during the process will be a good idea, if you are already in there.
