the shop i bring my truck to put grease on mine aswell its actually a really smart idea if you do go to full lock often. my school has a realy tight parking lot so full look is something i cant get around.

IDK what the guy put on it, it stays on well. he puts it on every time i get my oil changed. its better than metal on metal, every thing is better when you use a little lube! if you know what i mean.....
