What is the Equivalent to Snapper "#00 grease"?

This goes in the rear transmission case of my LT16 rider. I've seen a blurb or two about an equivalent viscosity being something like gear lube (80W-90 or such) + axle grease, mixed 1:1. I'd like to find out what a spec equivalent is, if one exists, so I can buy/make the stuff w/o having to be tied into a brand-specific material.

Thanks - JayC

That would be the second thing I never heard of and will never be able to find.

Let me be more specific with my question...what grade and type of lube is this stuff, and are there any commonly available replacements (like at WalMart or Autozone)?

Thanks - JayC

A quick google search reveals that this is the part number at the Snapper dealer for the 00 grease you are searching for.. If you dont have a Sten/snapper dealer close by I bet another lawn mower dealer would have a cross match product..

Rotary also sells a 00 grease. It is usually light brown in color and is also sold by Amsoil. Look also in the tool sections at Lowes or Wallyworld as Dewalt sells it for tools.

Shell sells it but in 5 gallon pails.
