    Hello everyone. Brand new to the forum and fairly new to jeeps and learning a lot as I go.

    I have a '73 CJ5 and I'm replacing some pieces of the clutch linkage. I was wondering what kind of grease I should use when putting the pivot/bushing back into the end of the bellcrank? Sorry for such a simple question.

    Thanks!

    I always like using a moly based wheel bearing grease. There are other Industrial type greases out there that may work better but I've had good luck with that and use it in my grease gun for all my u-joints, tie rod ends, etc. with good results. Nickmil.

    Gotta agree with nickmil, the moly base grease seems to hold up pretty good. Welcome to the forum.
