prop shaft and ujoint grease
 
Hello all.........This may be a dumb question but can some one please tell me the right amount of grease to be applied to the u joint and prop shaft.I normally just pump it until i see new grease but i NEW to LR's and i dont want screw anything up.Also i will be using a auto and marine type grease if thats OK.
Thanks all for your input............;)

Your choice of grease is fine, I use farm implement grease.

U-joints are u-joints, you grease them all the same.
