Topic: What grease for shifter & seat?

[83MT]

I see on the heavy duty shifter seat installation it says to grease it before putting the shifter in. I didn't do this when I put it all back together, but I don't see what grease to use. What grease should I use?

I used a little bit of white lube (trailer ball grease) on my sons truck    its super slippery and doesn't gum up     it's been shifting real good since

nah, ky jelly is water soluable and dries up

vaseline would work though

Ok, so white lithium in a spray bottle would even work? Or the all purpose grease for chassis lubing? Thanks!

[gmack192]

the white lithium I used comes in a tube or small jar       I guess the spray would work too

Yeah I've never completely understood what the difference is between the aerosol and the tube stuff...I'm guessing it's more or less the same. Thanks.
