What grease for gimble bearing in Volvo Penta 270 stern drive??

[jakefreese]

I searched and couldnt find it. The service manual for the drive shows NLG#2 and #2.5, are yall using Lithium base or Polyurea ? Or just a good EP #2 bearing grease?

This is on my new to me 93 Wellcraft 18SX Volvo 230/270

Thanks!

Well I have a ton of EP high speed wheel bearing grease here so I'll just use it then. Thanks again!

Volvo Penta 270s do not have gimbal bearings. What exactly are you trying to grease?

OK, I saw the grease zert inside at the transom I just assumed it went to the Gimbel bearing. It must just go to part of the moving assembly. Boat and trailer is greased, new sea water pump is in, it's all waxed up. I just need to leak check, of course I didn't think about the seals on the end of the sea water lines. So they got rtv, hopefully we will be good to go.
