Drive Shaft lube ?????

i am going to lube my drive shaft tuesday?
anything special i should use
all i have is like reg grease or all purpose grease thats in my gun...
also is there anything else that should be greased while im under there???

 

bump

 

I bought a tube of Mobil1 sythetic and did mine a few weeks ago.

Its quite a messy job too. 5 joints to do. The two on the front driveshaft were a pain in the ass to tighten the fitting to the zerk

 

I was wondering the same thing yesterday since I changed my oil at 15,000 miles. The manual recommended greasing the "propeller shaft". I assume that is the driveshaft?

Other than the 2 driveshaft fittings, what else needs to get lubricated? Should I use OEM Toyota grease or is Mobil 1, etc okay too?

 

You might change the gear oil in your diffs while you're down there. Here's a quick writeup on greasing the shafts.
