Yes and Yes.

I just give about 3 squirts of molybdenum disulphide grease (however you spell it) in there every time I grease all the nipples/zerks (which is every 3000kms for me)

And if the grease in there starts looking a bit too dry - I apply a couple of little squiirts of gear oil with an oil can too
