About any good gun grease, Lucas 2 Red "N" Tacky will work.

Ok I'll say it

Ok I'll say it. You're real close to flipping that shackle the wrong way. Careful lifting the tires off the ground with the level up

Isn't that the way you change a flat with the level up, just pick that side up off the ground

I’m not impressed with that weld to the frame. It looks like one of mine!

Can it be done? Yes
Are you suppose to according to the manufacturer that warranties it? No

I saw it in Cedar Creek literature that it was bragging about all four tires off the ground at once. Besides sometimes no matter what I do one side will be off the ground and it will stay like that. Anyway the level-up is really just a dumb machine, the only one that knows the tires are off the ground is the person looking at it

There is no special grease for it. Just any type of multi-purpose will work. Others may have a preference to use a Moly Blend. I am a fan of either Schaeffers Moly or Royal Purple grease.
