The EZlube axels are not a substitue for a proper cleaning, inspection and repack.
When I was running drum brakes, I would give the EZlube a couple of squeezes, more to move any water that may have gotten in past the seals. Something I picked up on my bike, I never expected to pull the axel for a repack and have a cup of water come out of the axel.
If you travel high miles or through torrential downpours, nothing wrong with adding a squeeze or two. But go easy, you can push grease out of the rear seal without knowing it and lose your brakes.
