Wait till you get the wheels off. On the inside of the hub is a seal. Old and dry and torn and leaks water ETC. Replace the nice rusty bearings. Wash out the hub with kerosine or with a little gas mixed in, OUT SIDE IN THE YARD, and get the hub spotless. Also gently sraighten out the hub caps and put a nice thick hand made cork gasket there so no more water can get in. If you have knuckel problems or linkage, that is a whole nother story! The front hubs on my dads 300 I drilled and fitted grease fittings a long time ago. Once you fill the hub with grease do a once a year gentle pump with the grease gun till a little grease just ozzes out of the rear seal.
