  • Steering rack lubricant

    Hi do most people still use EP 80 oil or have some changed to grease and if so what type
    best regards Gary

    We still use EP80 in the old girl, currently same in DDG but many folks have changed to mix of EP80 and land rover swivel pin grease or just the grease itself.

    Keiths a big Landy fan and can help on where to buy the better brands from.

    I would not do another rack on EP80 alone.

          Yes, Landrover swivel grease is the thing to go for.

              Cool, they are there, do you have a good set of the ally rack mounting brackets and the steel bottom brackets ?

              Just let me know, they might need a blast and coated but I will have them
