Question Teflon grease

Does anyone have any experience using teflon grease on their truck? It's been around awhile for bikes and such but now I see that Ford is starting to recommend it for some auto applications.

For example, I understand Ford now suggests using teflon grease on driveshaft slip yokes to help alleviate certain 'clunking' conditions in some models.

What's the scoop?

Teflon grease

Not much of a response to my post . I guess there aren't a lot of teflon grease users around here.

Anyway, there is a Ford part number for it (# D2AZ-19590-A) so evidently it's something Ford is going with in certain applications.

Teflon grease

I have been using teflon grease at the yokes of all my Fords since about 1976 when I started having problems with my 74 F-100. One of my runnin' buddies was a trouble shooter at a Lincoln-Mercury dealer and gave me the stuff. I still have one of the original tubes. The yoke is all I use it on. I don't think it would work well in ball joints/tie rods.

Teflon grease

That blue stuff on Ford slip-yokes is a Teflon based coating. When it wears off, it makes sense to replace it with Teflon grease.

Is it available anywhere else except a Ford dealership?

Interesting. I didn't know that.
