Is there any difference in between front wheel bearing grease and cv grease?
Thank You!!!! Phillip J. Haun Oak Harbor, Wa. |

CV grease is moly. Wheel bearing is a high temp bentonite-based grease.
Some new greases, like the Swepco grease I use, is ok for both but many are not. When in doubt buy the proper CV moly grease. |

Why try to save 10 bucks on something like that. |
