Don't, for the god's sake mess with those bearings, please! You will
most likely just pack in some dust with the fresh grease in the
bearings, and shorten their life significantly. The original grease
should last for the life of the bearing, and is not meant to be touched,
unless it got noisy or something. In that case you should replace the
whole bearing. The Nissan OE bearing comes packed with grease. Just push
it in with a press, and you are set. Doesn't cost a lot either, so it's
just not worth to touch it if it's got no problems.
The rear bearings cannot be disassembled at all, at least in my (ex or
maybe not) '91. They come complete with the hub assembly, and almost
never fail.

cheers,
Laszlo
