Default front hub?

i have an 07 1500 classic, 2 whl. dr.
i would like to know if there is any maintainance info for greasing the front wheel bearings. ive had this piece since feb. of this yr. an im still getting updated. i bought the 4 book manual set from the dealer an i cant find a word about greasing the wheel bearings, they just describe on how to remove the hubs. thanks in advance.

They only can be replaced. Its a one piece. It costs about $130 at the parts store if needing a new one. Very easy to do. Just 3 bolts.

hub/bearing assembly comes out together, as ruffneck said. only greasable object in the front end these days is the outer tie rods (on some models only)

if you wanna replace the hub once a year then get the cheap hub from the store, if you want it to last, get the ac delco hub its about 250 atleast here in the houston area, but it's worth the coin in my book...

thats kinda what i had came up with also.just wasnt sure. i have done some snooping at local parts stores online an for some strange reason they dont list wheel bearing seals, so that made me suspicious.welcome to the new era of non-maintainance.
thanks for the info guys!

Don't buy one from ebay. I was stupid enough to buy 2 of them one after another from one. First lasted one year and the second one 2 months. Got a ac delco now.
