914World.com _ 914World Garage _ What Kind of Lube for Rack and Pinion?

Posted by: silver six Sep 15 2003, 04:51 PM

What kind of lube you you like for the 911 Rack and Pinion with the turbo tie rods? I mean the lube that goes in the rack. A nice well lubed rack will get you pretty far in this world.

So I'm guessing it's lithium grease right? Any dissenters?

no.

modybdenum disulphide "MoS2"

factory calls for a Dow-Corning product.
i'd probably just use one from Lubro-Moly or Swepco's moly grease.
in a pinch, moly-based CV grease from the FLAPS.
