[NSRCA-discussion] Hacker gearbox

[Richard Strickland]

Allied Oil in KC's got it for about $4.65 a 14 oz tube-but you have to buy a
10 pack.  Orland and I are debating....  I figure a 14 oz tube would last
..oh..5-10 YEARS....  Got their salesman working on splitting a 10 pack.  I
looked them up on Shell's distributor locator by Zip....  I've got some
super Lubriplate stuff that I've had for years-I'm going to see how that
compares.  The Shell stuff has some body and good heat resistance-but the AO
salesman thought there would be a few 'or equals' out there and he was going
to look into it....

BTW, the Hacker folks at the repair station said you have to put the same
gears on the same shafts when re-assembling or it potentially screws up the
motor.  I don't see quite how-but my exp. with planetary drives is pretty
limited.  Please don't shoot the messenger.

easy to get lubricant let us know.
