I have read this from several sources, that a NLGI "self leveling" grease would work well for this application. IE: Will not push off of the surfaces that are intended to be lubed, and will resettle into the gears whenever you stop driving. It also stops the dripping of course, since it is not liquid.
However.... The only way I can seem to find this stuff packaged is in 5+ gallon containers, that start in the $80 range. I will NEVER use that much of this stuff with the time I have left on this earth, lol. I need about a pint at the most to take up the open space in the steering box.
Does anyone know where I can get this stuff in a grease gun tube, or in a small tub?
