maybe they changed some things around. I just looked at the grease provided from mine last year and it is just a high performance grease, no rcv label or anything. I'm just telling you that I followed step by step instructions from rcv and did not deviate and I remember greasing the splines and the shaft with the provided grease.

My mechanic who did my install put the tube in a grease gun for me and gave it to me explaining that the grease is very expensive and about every six months to grease the ends.

One more thing, I'm not sure if he greased the shafts with this grease, but I'm sure any grease would work for that.

Maybe in other parts of the country this is a big problem, but in the midwest I haven't seen a lot people eating or otherwise placing automotive grease in their bodies.

if it is on the label, then you know someone has tried
