Boro wheel bearing repair?

i gotta sell this damn saturn, but the fr wheel bearing is dead, now i might just go grab one at the junkers, but could i just pack that busted bitch up with grease?

would that stop the noise long enough for some sucker to test drive the car?

or does anyone know of another sleezy used car salesman trick?

i doubt it would stop the noise, afterall its just grease you're applying to the already dead bearing.......but you could give it a try and let us know....

personally i would pocket one from the junkyard, and eliminate the problem period. Not worth it to "ruin" the buyer's first impression of the car over a bearing
