Wow, you give me far too much credit Lisa! I'm good at finding and shopping but stink at mechanical/technical things....I defer to Dub, Triathlete, T4B and the rest for that kind of info! I just had my wheel bearings repacked last week and don't even know what kind of grease they used. But 'll learn somethin' new when somebody answers you

I don't know about synthetic grease, but Isuzu says our rear drive shaft u-joints require NLGI No. 2 with the M0S2 additive. So that's what I use. Ya can get it anywhere, even Walmart has it.

I just checked the repair manual and that's also the grease they mention for the inner and outer wheel bearings. I suppose if there's a synthetic that says it's an acceptable substitute for NLGI No. 2, it would work just fine.

Thanks, I was wondering more about brands......I was debating ordering royal purple grease or amsoil.....on the rear diff I have never used the additive and my old diff is still running strong in lasturbos vx, had 110k when I sent it to him....

I've used both Amsoil & Mobil 1 grease with no problems...

I do prefer the minty fresh flavor of...no wait, that was toofpaste...

I'm confused. you started out talking about grease for the wheel bearings and U-Joints. Now you're talking about the rear differential which takes oil, not grease.

Rekin I'll just have to go with Ldub on this one & recommend 'minty fresh'.

Thanks Tom, I was always talking grease....it was deermagnet that brought up the rear diff so I just said I never used an additive in mine. I am trying to find the royal purple grease which has to be ordered.....I dont need any help on the fluids
