Rod in NC Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I'm putting new tie rods and boots on my 1974 260Z rack and pinion...when I pulled off the old boots...I'm not sure what that substance is! Looks like a mix between black oil and grease. Haynes manual doesn't say what or how much to put in the new boots. I'm thinking regular wheel bearing grease is too thick. My MGB uses motor oil in the rack and pinion chamber, but I wanted to see what every one is using on the Z. THanks. -Rod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFancypants Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 I used Synthetic grease (Castrol IIRC). I used the same stuff to repack my hubs. - Greg - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
