It's EZ to tell if you have EZ lube axles. If the center cap has removable plastic cover and the dust cap on the hub has a plastic plug in it, pop the plugs off and you should be able to see a grease nipple.
Keep in mind that the wheels need to be off the ground to properly pack the bearings. As you apply the grease, the wheel needs to be turned so that all of the rollers get new lube. At the same time the end play in the bearings needs to be checked and adjusted if neccessary.
EZ lube hubs a not a replacement for an annual inspection and repack.
