grease??? - bigjs - 11-25-2005
while looking through the manual to my buggy, it calls for grease in certain areas. do you guys use grease, and if so what types?

yepp,
Grease is a must on the Diff gears (ring and pinion) Some manuals say to use it on the bearings that does help a bit but dirt collects on it. I was useing the grease that was included with my k3 for a long time, I ran out so i have been using some AE black grease.
I will have a list of K3 parts for you by tomorrow hopefully

I go to Napa and use white lithium grease.
I also have some stuff called white lightning from my old Mountain biking days, its basically the same a lithium. repels dirt and water etc.

I like the Tamiya molybdenum disulfide (black grease). You need only a VERY thin coat of it. It's a very high pressure lube (like 80000+psi) so, it'll work anywhere.

So bearing grease wont kill my diffs? I thought it might be too much
