Just because they're well greased, doesn't mean they're not bad. Take the hub off, and make sure there is no play at all in the bearing. Even the slightest bit of play in a wheel bearing can, and will become dangerous. They are what holds your wheel on. Also, jack the rear of the car up, and wiggle the rear wheels. If the bearing is bad, the wheels will wiggle around.

Oh, ouch. Those bad boys are expensive! The adjuster in the drum was probably froze up. When you put it back together, make sure the adjuster is ok.
