They are different types and volumes.

Outboard joint takes the larger packet of grease, inboard takes smaller packet.
Here are the details (From the 05LX FSM but confirmed it's the same oz. numbers in the 98 FSM):
Inboard Joint Grease capacity: 293 - 303 g (10.3 - 10.7 oz.)
Outboard Joint Grease capacity: 368 - 378 g (13 -13.3 oz.)
I don't remember for sure but I assume whatever numbers you see are either in grams or in ounces and should correspond to the numbers above.

here is a pic
Yep, the larger one with the cone goes in the smaller outboard end, it's not fun. the smaller one goes in the inboard. I caked some into the boot and the rest into the inboard tulip and then installed the cage/bearings into the grease and wiggled it around a bunch, all good. Hint, roll the bearings in the grease and stick em in the cage to help hold them in place.

Looks like there's part numbers on your pic.

no way!!! I actually did not think that was it.
While there may be Toyota part numbers on the tubes, I don't think Toyota sells the grease independent of the kit from what I remember reading here.
