914World.com _ 914World Garage _ CV grease proper amount

Posted by: rgalla9146 Jan 25 2022, 09:36 AM

What is the required amount of CV grease for 110mm (911) CVs ?
Is this known ? In the past a tube was provided with new CVs
I'm working from scratch.

I have some Lobro packets and they are 80g

G50 108mm CV uses 100g, that's likely very close. The G50 CV is what I use on my early 108mm set-up.

I always just packed in as much as I could without the grease glopping out the sides of the CV.
Is it even possible to over grease them?

I have the 80g GKN squeeze bags.
They seem small to me.
I'll go with one per joint and see if it looks adequate.
I'd like to have them uniform.
Thanks guys

My Clymer books suggest 70g for 911 and 914/6, 90g for 914/4 - FYI.
