I keep seeing articals about greasing the drive shaft spline.

Q is this in reference to the one piece or two piece or both drive shafts?

Q What grease should be used on the spline?

Q Will the tranny oil pore out when the spline is removed from the tranny (or is it the back end of the transfer case)? late at night and cold.

thanks for any info.

I ended up using a high end marine bearing grease and it seems to be working so far. I have about 1500+ miles on it. It had the same color and consistency as the one from GM. I was told the GM product was $80 a pint. I originally took truck in to dealer to get it done and they used the fluid for transfer case, but it didn't work.
