if you dont want to take the axles out, you can remove the big nut and push the axle out as far as it will go then use a brush or similar tool to apply the grease. it's very fiddly due to space constraints and u cannot clean out the existing crud and corrosion unless you remove the axles.

set aside an afternoon and that should be enough time
This is exactly what I figured Maybe in November I will have an afternoon to work on it. I'm half tempted to replace the CV joints completely.
