Drive shaft grease

[martinh55]

My original shafts have started clicking when pulling off so I'm going to take them off and re grease them.

 

Will this grease be suitable?

Cheers in advance

It would be fine on the driveshaft splines as I used a lithium grease on mine to solve the click, however it wouldn't be that great inside the actual rubber boot where the joint is, I would use something heavier.

They'd be no need for the CV joints to be re greased.......

 

I used this for mine and over 3yrs later no issues

Any old grease will do for the splines.
