grease

[dragonfly]

hello this question is about trailer axle grease is it the same for the shifting cable and tilt and trim or is that a different grease?

No idea what the motor shifter grease is. However, trailers require high temp, water resistant brearing grease.

That is the grease I use.

If you read the FAQ sections, it can be used for motor controls.

Just remember, though, 'any grease is better than no grease at all.' :wink:

My suggestion on grease is get the good stuff (high temp, water resistant) keep it in your greasegun and throw it at anything with a grease fitting. If it does not have a fitting, probably needs some other form of lube.

You should be fine using the same grease

I used this stuff for years on my bearings and ball hitch.

The FAQ I was refering to is at Mystik Lube website. As for the FAQ on this site, read the stickies at the top of each forum. Welcome to the site. Dont be shy about asking questions. Its how one learns, and how one with newly acquired knowledge can learn more by teaching others, those with vast experience will chime in as needed. When one stops learning they start dieing.

Yeah I've been trying to read up on as much information as I can before I ask questions. I'm sure it gets old answering the same questions over and over. This site has a lot of good info and has really helped me out.
