Guess you can count me in the "arguers", then. The TR3 factory manual says to
remove all traces of grease, before "liberally coating the rollers and races
with new grease". No mention of packing the space between the inner bearings.
That's the way I did my TR3A, for well over 100,000 miles, and I never had a
wheel bearing failure.
OTOH, packing the cavity probably doesn't hurt anything, except waste grease.
