2 types of lubricants in CV Joint boot kit
Hi,
I bought the OEM CV Joint boot kit like this: https://www.google.pl/search?q=31607...UTF-8&hl=en-gb The problem is that I got 3 lubricants: - 2x One-Luber GKN (100g) - 1x GKY H-15 (100g) Does anyone know where I should add these? I know that at least one (probably One-Luber 200g should go into the CV Joint boot but what’s the purpose of GKY H-15 then? |

I think I may have screwed this up and put the incorrect lube in the outer joint. I replaced a torn outer boot and didn't realize there were two different lubes in the kit until it was too late. IIRC, there was a dark green lube in the outer from the factory, and the lube I put in was more silver? That's going by memory though, so may not be accurate.

I hope you're right! Oh well, it's holding up so far and if the joint does go bad I'll just end up replacing the shaft like I almost did initially anyway. The boot kits are not expensive, just labor intensive to install and I have more time than money.
