    Mercury Quicksilver A/B gear case question

    I have a Mercury Quicksilver racing lower unit and gear case on a 1973 Merc 25ss. What is the recommended grease to use for the caged needle bearings pressed into the cone cover that fits over the prop shaft and covers the water pump impellor and is secured by a large left hand thread cone shaped nut.

    Thanks

    I would think the same lube as an SSM uses would work. We use Mercury High Perf. Synthetic Racing Gear Lube. I believe its 80-90 weight. If it's the style unit that has a non-oiled sealed bearing I don't know.

    Thanks its the style with the bearing cone that requires hand greasing before installing on the prop shaft and securing. BTW I use the Merc High Performance 80 90 inside the gear case.
