Lubricating your Shaft



All jokes aside, I think it's good to have at least a little moly in 
there, and the thin CV joint grease is good IMO because it doesn't stay 
there long anyway, it's just sort of a vehicle for the moly, and it's 
not thick enough to gum things up.  It has worked outstandingly well in 
my limited experience.  This is the stuff in those toothpaste tubes.

Don, you know that this landed in the same folder as the viagra ads?
