I have used Kendall super blu for all wheel bearings, tie rods and ball joints in all client and race cars for nearly 40 years and never had a grease related failure.
Would not recommend anything that was not specific for wheel bearings. Yes there are lithiums that are high pressure wheel bearing specific. The white I have is not, and it works great for door slides and latches.
I would recommend changing it out especially if it is a track car. One time should not hurt anything. You may have to sacrifice a couple of boots though.
Then again if it is a quality grease and the manufacture specifications say that it can be used in ball socket joints then you should be all right. Especially if they can back it up with race proven or long term testing.
That is my two corner seals thrown in.
