Re: what oil/grease to use in restored manual steering gear
The grease that was in your steering gear was from the factory. You can install 80 or 90 weight gear oil if you wish or reinstall grease like came from the factory. A good wheel bearing type grease will work. You just want to make sure that the grease or oil you use will not be too thick in the winter. That's not a problem in the south.
