Maybe a dumb question. A quick search of the forum didn't turn up an answer. Can I use the Yamaha Marine Grease for the Shorelandr trailer wheel bearings? From what I did find in my search I think they might be different kinds of grease (over based calcium sulfonate vs. aluminum something???), but I have no idea if they are compatible or not. I would rather not have to buy different grease if it is not necessary. If it is necessary I also don't want to burn up my wheel bearings.
 
For the bearings you'd want an NGLI no 2, like Lubrimatic 11402, which is a calcium sulfonate grease (this is what the factory uses).

The yamalube grease I don't think is ngli rated and is a Lithium soap base...

Trailer bearing grease is designed for high temps, not sure about Yamalube.

Thanks, I'm glad I asked
