Axle joint capacity

[CnC79X19]

Anyone know offhand how a person would go about repacking an axle joint with no more than 3.2oz of grease? What kind of grease for starters and secondly, any way to measure that out that doesn't require a university degree? 3.2oz weight wise or volume? Any quick suggestions?

There is a type of grease made just for CV joints and often it's sold in single-joint sized packaging. Take a look for some at your local parts store and see if you can get two "single use" tubes, so no fussing with how much to use. Maybe someone else knows of a more Fiat specific application suggestion, but this is a 4oz tube so about 3/4 of it would be 3oz.
