For others who may be similarly in a state of ignorance it appears that a Corn Head is a large piece of agricultural equipment that gets attached to an even larger combine harvester. Various gears are very much in evidence and this grease is what is recommended to lubricate them. It isn't made from the heads of corn! </div><div style><br></div><div style>Seems to be a similar consistency to Penrite lube.</div><div style><br></div><div style>Derek</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Jun 15, 2015 at 7:13 PM, Michael Salter <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:michaelsalter@gmail.com" target="_blank">michaelsalter@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:comic sans ms,sans-serif;font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><div><div class="h5"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Jun 15, 2015 at 8:11 AM, Michael <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:michael.salter@gmail.com" target="_blank">michael.salter@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div><div><div style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:11pt">With all due respects to those recommending it for steering boxes grease is not a satisfactory lubricant for any type of precision gearbox.<br>The reason is very simple.<br>The pressure on the gear teeth will displace the lubricant from the loaded faces so that lubricant must be a liquid to be replenished.<br>That is why the designers went to all the trouble of installing a seal.<br>Michael S<br>BN1 #174</div></div><div dir="ltr"><hr><span><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:bold">From: </span><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:11pt"><a href="mailto:tomfelts@windstream.net" target="_blank">Tom Felts</a></span><br><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:bold">Sent: </span><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:11pt">14/06/2015 5:00 p.m.</span><br><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:bold">To: </span><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:11pt"><a href="mailto:healeys@autox.team.net" target="_blank">healeys@autox.team.net</a></span><br></span><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:bold">Subject: </span><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:11pt">[Healeys] Steering Box and Wire Wheel Questions--BJ8</span><br><br></div><div><div>I have recently been hearing a "pop pop" noise coming from the right front suspension area when making a slow full right turn.<br><br>I do not hear it when making a full turn when the car is on concrete and is not moving.<br><br>I noted this same condition on my E-Type also. <br><br>I have Dayton wire wheels on both and relatively new hubs. <br><br>It is not the spinners or a wheel bearing or worn splines.<br><br>Several listers on the Jag list have said they had the same problem and found that the quality of the Dayton's had gone down and they did not fit flush with the hub--thus causing the noise while making a sharp turn.
