What Lubricant to use on my slip yoke grease zerks
My service manual is asking for special lubricant for my slip yoke grease zerks on the driveshaft. Just was wondering what everybody was using?

i use marine grease in everything do to the salt in my area. never had a problem also i cover the tip of the fitting so it does not freeze with rust. next time i grease i wipe down and do it again.

Back when I was at the dealership, they had Lubriplate. Marine grease, or molly grease will work just as good as Lubriplate, if not better.
