Re: [MV] what to put in the steering house?

You should used OE-10 oil. Grease is a shortcut used by old used car
salesmen & military in the field. It will allow the gear to burn up as
the grease gets older & harder.

Look in the manual under the after fording maintenance section.

Hope that helps.
