    That is what I did (but then what do i know)...I think I got the idea from Knuckle pudding and wanting something a bit more fluid than standard grease, but that won't drain out the leaky seal around the horn wire at the bottom. Donny or Duffer talked about using Lubriplate in it....so I used a 00 assembly grease from FLAPS....

    This is the one I intend to use. It is what I have in the knuckles.

    Contact Brian Hainer on facebook, AKA Metalshaper. He sells the correct lubricant for Ross Steering boxes and front knuckles as well as t90 and D18's. He also has good videos on rebuilding all of these.
