Bobsal, was this the first brake work on this rig. I can't see how the grease in the drum wasn't discovered during a wheel bearing packing job by hand if the zerk was not use, unless the bearings haven't been repacked in 4+ years. Did you buy this rig new? If so, I have seen the dealers check list for trailers shipped from Keystone, bearing and brakes are on that check list after being pulled from factory to dealer. I know when mine arrived, there was very little grease, and dealer showed me, before repacking by hand.
Yes, this was the first repack since new. We have not used it too much since taking delivery as DW still worked till last year. Only put 1000 miles or less per year. Should be able to use it more now that she retired.
