Default Possibly a newb question... but?

Okay, so I was lucky enough to get my hands on a Great Basin Rovers front driveshaft, and it should be on the way in the next few days, and before I put it in the car, I plan on greasing it, however I only have one grease in my garage, Termalene.... and I don't know too much about it, all I really know is that its used on submarines...

Question is, would this stuff be unsafe to use on the driveshaft?

if not what should I get?

no clue what termalene is. I don't even know what others here use, I'm sure that Land Rover has a very specific grease that is to be used on all grease fittings and it's proably $500,000 per tube...

I just use the typical black grease that is at all auto parts stores...comes in a tube that goes into the grease gun. It's so infrequent that I buy the stuff that I don't know if it's an all purpose grease or if it's a bearing grease or what.

This isn't really surprising at all. Its what we use on a lot of heavy duty applications on submarines. Its thick, blue, and extremely tacky. It repels seawater like you wouldn't believe.
