TX Simple grease question

I hope simple. I've replaced the ball joints and steering linkage and now have zerks to grease. What grease can I use? Can the same grease be used to pack the wheel bearings?

I've seen a lot of lithium grease but there seems to be different bases for different applications, ie heavy, standard and light use. Some just say base: lithium, others have graphite additives and some say base: 12-hydroxy lithium complex. Will any suffice for this application?

I went with the 12-hydroxy lithium complex red grease:
14 Oz. Sta-Plex Extreme Pressure Premium Red Grease

Thanks!
