I am a fan of Swepco 101 moli grease. Been using it pretty much every where, wheel bearings, CV joints, etc.... for 20 + years
Jim And yea, I use Swepco gear oil in my trans too. |

I've been happy with Royal Purple's new grease, and Mobil-1's before that. Swepco's 101 is also excellent, and one of two products I could consider in CV service (my preference is LubroMoly's CV grease...). Buy Swepco 101 from Pelican, it'll be delivered to your doorstep. That's pretty local... |
