Free Wheeling Hubs question

I'm putting my front axle together and am wondering if I need to oil the Warn Free wheeling hubs at all. I cleaned it out got it working again but does it need anything else?

You need to grease the entire unit for it to work smoothly or it will rust and seize.

Thanks, do I just use general purpose grease or do I need something specific?

For my hubs I will use Princess Autos Krazy Grease which comes in a jar or tube. We sell loads of the stuff especially for those putting their trailers in the water. In past I found other greases tend to almost clog up the up making it very difficult to engage and disengage,
My 2 bits worth!
