Front whee noise - 10000mls for a bearing change??

Hi Guys,
I just bought a 2003 with only 3000k miles, stock Bridgestones, it has the same "grind" that AJ has.
Just makes the noise in turnes at higher speeds (50+). I am going to try the axle torque first ...VulcanE...I am going to try 85# as you recomended...is that the factory spec?

Can you "repack" lube or grease the wheel bearings or do you need to replace them? Sounds spendy. Thanks
