ChrisL 18 Posted January 16, 2015 Putting some new wheel bearings in over the weekend and wondered what the best type of grease to use is? I've got some moly grease which is black in colour but this mainly states cv joints, is this any good? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
delfinis38 1 Posted January 16, 2015 Putting some new wheel bearings in over the weekend and wondered what the best type of grease to use is? I've got some moly grease which is black in colour but this mainly states cv joints, is this any good? I would use a bearing grease.... its normally brown in colour not black like the stuff you put on cv joints. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diarmaid16 1 Posted January 16, 2015 Is there not a pouch of grease in the bearing packaging? Any I've fitted have always had these. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davidwort 0 Posted January 16, 2015 another vote for plain Castrol LM or similar, they're only taper roller bearings, you don't want CV grease or anything Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've always used LM (Low Melting point Castrol) personally Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davidwort 0 Posted January 16, 2015 Cheers everyone, just been out and got some Castrol grease. it is a bit confusing when CV grease is Lith Moly grease but the right grease is Low Melting Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
