All our greases are made in the USA. Our normal grease is one of the best 3% Moly greases.
We offer two upgrades for grease. Both are fully synthetic greases with high moly and other friction modifiers and ideally suited for performance CVs. We have race tested them and they are superior.
- Our best grease is used mainly for extreme conditions and racing.
- Our high performance grease is used where the standard moly won’t do (daily driver / race cars or offroad).
- Or send us your preferred grease for a small extra fee. Caulking style tubes please.

Here is how we categorize axles and racks.
- Best – OEM New (Original Equipment Manufacturer) – High $$$
- Better – CVJ Remanufactured CV Axle – Great Quality/ Good $
- Poor – New Part Store/ Aftermarket/ Chinese – Inferior quality & fit
- Worst – Lazy Rebuilt – Unacceptably poor
- Make sure they are Original Manufacturer – even some dealerships sell aftermarket new.
- We think this choice makes the most sense.
- If price is paramount you might want to keep your OEM cores.
- What can we say. You might be missing dust shields and other components.
