Recommended Lube Grease for F53

[Wyatt]

Hi all,

Been reading through the FORD F53 manual. I can’t seem to find, (nor did I by searching this forum), what grease one would use for the 9 line points on an F53.

If you have a recommendation, and why you chose it, I’m all ears. Thanks in advance!

Because it is not done all that often so stick with OEM products, to keep it simple

NLGI Grade #2 is the proper grease, the mfgr. is immaterial. Yes that is in the owners manual.Listed under "capacities and specifications"

I think the F53 steering box has a zerk fitting, covered by a rubber dust cover.
