Thanks everyone. I don’t think I have ever used marine grease before. From: Warren King Sent: Saturday, March 09, 2019 7:51 PM To: AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group Subject: Re: [AFMUG] OT Axel Grease
I've used Sta Lube boat trailer wheel bearing grease for assembly.

It was sticky nasty black stuff. The only use I knew about was he would grease the ball hitch on his car prior to pulling his camp trailer. Tomorrow I start the reassembly of a big ol dump truck transmission. One of the things I will need to do is to mate the input shaft to the main shaft and the input shaft has a bunch of needle bearings inside. Always a touchy thing. You grease up the input shaft, carefully place the bearings and hope they do not fall out during assembly. I wish I had some of my grandfather’s axel grease. I am considering melting some paraffin and adding some grease to make a sticky facsimile of what I remember. Anyone know of a super thick and sticky grease? -- AF mailing list [email protected] http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- AF mailing list [email protected] http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
