Steering Rack- Grease Type?
Hi all,
I'm replacing the inner tie rods on my '03 Expedition, and want to grease the rack beneath the boots. I've searched here and elsewhere, and can't find the type of grease to use. I don't want to cause issues by using the wrong type. Anyone have experience? Thanks!

Any general purpose moly type of grease will work. But I'm not so sure that you should grease them at all. The sliding shafts in the rack are internally lubricated with power steering fluid every time they move in and out.
