    I have icon delta joints for my uca and moog ball joints on my dirt king lca.

    would superlube ptfe be good for them? Or should I get a molly grease? Would rather use the super lube because I have a lot of it. Unless it’s not good for those joints. Thanks.

    Personally I avoid greases with PTFE. That stuff, if it works it’s way into threads or press-fit parts can have unintended consequences. I notice in the post above they don’t recommend on the joint, just the urethane pivots.

    Anways. All else is good, but after many years chasing issues in industrial equipment tracked down to PTFE creep, it’s a hard no on that stuff from me.
