high temp grease

Postby garynonnah » Tue Sep 02, 2014 8:42 pm

Hi guys/gals
Im in early stages of my project, after 30+ yrs decided to buy and restore gp200..
All going well, but was wondering what would be the best grease to pack all new
bearings with....? so many different suppliers.
cheers :?

Castrol LM will do, although there used to be another one with a slightly higher melting point but it's no longer available. I'm told the LM is fine, perhaps someone can confirm?

Castrol LM is fine.The discontinued one is the Castrol BNS.
I also use Silkolene PRO RG2.
