I use whatever EP2 lithium grease is cheapest in cartridge form. I've found buying them from a BP servo is cheaper now than Supercrap. |

what do you use in wheel bearings. I used moly in the ball joints, but i used caltex HTB in the bearings. |

Castrol HTB in the bearings, LMM in CVs. Steering racks I use Castrol LSX90. It's an LSD diff oil, has additives for metal to metal sliding contact- good for where the rack slides on the steel pressure pad. |

That's good, I still have a bottle of LSX90 left over from the HQ race car (but don't HQs run open diffs? ![]() ![]() |
