Manual says to lube gimble bearing zerk fitting using Quicksilver U-joint and gimble bearing grease. My question is, can I purchase a substitute grease at an auto parts store. Thank you for your time.

Buying 1 tube of the correct grease for you yearly maintenance on your ujoints and gimbal bearings can't be that big of an expense.

Re: Gimbel Bearing grease

Don you are right . The cost of the grease is no problem, Just my oversight.
I will be shrink wrapping boat Sat. Sunday I will take to storage didn't think of Gimbel bearing grease. I guess I could order grease and go visit boat in the yard. Thanks again for your reply.
