I'm replacing a torn "protective cap" on the swiveling fixture in the end
of a front track control arm that slips into the bottom of the strut
housing for the wheel bearing. The rubber cap had a tear in it. The
grease inside the cap had a bunch of grit from the slit in the cap, I
presume. Anyway, I wiped out all the grease/grit I could get with paper
towels and I'm ready to install a new cap. How much and what type of
grease can I use to replace the gob I took out? It looks like normal black
chassis lube. Does it need to be something special for high temps or
anything? Can I just gob some on and slip the cap into place?
