Question:
Hi, I bought 2 CE Smith CE13515 trailer idler hub assemblies last fall and havent installed them yet. My question is what type of grease is prepackaged in these? Is it lithium or calcium sulfonate. I hear you shouldnt mix grease formulas and want to make sure I use the same grease they come with when prepacked. Thanks, Joe G.
