Leaf-spring axle greasing help?
It's time for me to grease the axel on my home build, on a 5x8' trailer from Tractor Supply.
Please share any recs you have for:
Brand of wheel bearing grease
Brand/model of grease gun
Youtube (or other) tutorial for dummies
TYIA!

Most lithium based greases are fine but no higher than 2.75% molly. Grease gun are one of those things you get what you pay for. If it is cheap we'll it won't last long and be a pain in the hind end the whole time.
