I changed my CV joints on my nissan a lil while ago.
The grease within the Outter CV's was as you would expect 8 year old 55K grease to look, dark gooey & a wee bit runny ..... The grease from the internal CV's was like Mayo.... I had a good close look at it.... Scratched my head got lotsa rags scooped it up cleaned it all out & re-made those joints with AMSOIL "NLGI #2" ....... Come to think of it I used the same stuff on the outter joints too.... Pretty & red....... Anyways ..... I was wondering if the internal joints had some different kind of grease than the outers...... To be honest the mayo type stuff didn't look or really have the consistancy of emulsification..... It just looked plain odd
What do you guys think ?
