Hello guys. I'm not a noob, I just changed my Email and such and I'm back. Been on the board for a few years now. I'm all edu-macated in motor oil, but grease is a weak spot. I need a good quality grease for U-joint in my 4x4 truck, ball joints, and wheel bearins (EP #2 I guess). I've been searching around here are my options:
1- Lucas Red'n Tacky. 60# Timken load. High Drop point. Lithium 12.
2- valvoline Syn, Durablend or GM (all lithium complexes but synpower gets moly added). 50# timken, High drop point. The DB & Syn state they can be used in CV joints!! The only grease I've seen make that statement.
3- Mobil 1. 45# Timken load. High drop point. Lithium complex.
I've used Lucas XtraHD grease. Which is blue/green, Awsome stuff but it's a Polyurea, which doesn't blend with Lithiums. Being I'm adding to suspension and U-joints I rather stick to a mainstream compatible grease. Opinions on these greases?
