I've been using chevron SRI bearing grease for years or any brand from your local auto parts

Just use the same grease that you use in your car. A good brand of wheel bearing grease.

o-rings and plastics will last longer if you avoid using petroleum lubricants, I would use silicon grease.

They are sealed bearings no grease fitting, they usually last a year as long as you don't hit things. Reply bearings are cheap and easy to instal, I broke my hub so I had to by all new

That's a good. ? Lol. I'm a tech of 10 + years and I never greased. I just push the ball of the fitting down and pour a few drops of lite oil in it.

Depends on your chainline. You want your chainring as close in line with your sprocket as possible. So you'll need to measure what spindle length you need(in mm) in order for the chain to run smooth. I have an older steel frame and I used like a 107... something like that.

Thanks your a life saver.. worm gear follower was chewed up.. must not be hardened gears. The grease is liquifying so that probably doesnt help matters either. Only a few hours usage, though with stiff batter.Any recommendations on grease? I'm inclined to want to use automotive wheel bearing grease.

It is a food grade grease. I suspect it would work very well for mixer. We have an old mixer we picked up at auction, that I am going to be using it for, myself!

We used some Kendall utility oil that my husband has had for a long time and put a little bit on each of the bearings. Worked very well. I imagine any kind of general purpose oil would work....like sewing machine oil.

Nothing too watery, that could easily be the worst for the bearings, so I suggest a little rubbing alcohol and something on the acidic side I've used lemon juice and it seems to work pretty well. As for lubrication, the bones speed cream is what I use but any approved bearing lube will work.

No. I use marine outboard grease. You can use most any grease but traxxas sells small tubes of grease. Oil is too thin. Do not cake the grease in.just give a good coat to all parts.

High temperature grease, not sure of brand as it comes in a white generic tube.

Yes I used heat synch grease. I had a tube of grease already from an older computer repair.

This is the gear box grease. I am not aware of another grease for the models listed.

There are better lubes for PTO applications. A good grease would probably be better.. but.. in a pinch, if it were going to sit connected and idle for long periods.. it would probably work just fine.

I just use lithium grease from Walmart. A good friend of mine does small engine work for living and said that it's fine to use that. Side note, he said to grease them as often as possible.

Don't forget to get a can of PB baster,! It works excellent when you spray on every nut or screw and will also speed up the transfer of spindles etc. Get er done, Michele,!

This is the grease that I researched and used for my mixer and it worked great. The grease breaks down over time and simply needs to be replaced
