Steve,
I use bearing grease for 'exterior' bearings==> those that are likely exposed to the elements or are subjected to higher loads. This forms a better barrier to resist moisture penetration etc. Any gap between bearing and race is filled with grease.
For interior applications I use LPS2. ==> this spray lubricant has less friction than grease.

All the spherical bearings supplied in the kit originally are standard bearings available through any bearing outfit like Motion Industries.
What lubricant are you using for these bearings?
Why did you choose it?
