Ball Joint Grease
I plan on rebuilding my ball joints this week with one of the kits from rennbay. My question is as to the grease... what have people used? I know that the Loctite Super Lube teflon grease is highly recommended, but if I can't find that locally, is the Swepco 101 Bearing Grease nice as well? Or anything else I should look for?
Thanks,
Sach

Use a Teflon grease. I put in to use the super lube stuff because it was the most widely available (3oz tubes at wal-mart,napa,etc...). A Teflon based grease seems to work best because it works well with the Teflon that is already impregnated into the nylon.
Make sure to coat the bushings with the little bag of grease that was included before you install them.
