I have been using a dry lube but the threaded rods always have rust on them. Is there something better to use on them, I am in Texas so high humidity. Thanks Michael

I used to use Slip Plate on all my threaded rods with great success..

Not true at all. For years I've been using The Solution by Krown ... it's a Canadian company but this product is available in the US as well through Krown dealers. It's absolutely fantastic for use on the stabs or virtually anything else on your rig that moves & needs lubrication, without the mess of grease. :B

From the factory they come packed with some kind of heavy grease so pretty much anything will work. If you use something like that you will need to clean them once in awhile.

and how is this product any differant than a dry type lube?

I use a sylicon spray product with Teflon. The Teflon stays behind and leaves a film of "grease" like substance but the screws in my stabilizer system don't collect dirt. Can't remember the name but I get it at the local HD

sorry, double post.

It's not a dry lube, it's a wet spray, but doesn't attract grit as does grease ... in fact, it's the same product Krown uses in bulk in their rust protection process. GREAT stuff! :B

I use Blaster White Lithium Grease

I've always used a product designed for slide gears from Protect All called Slide Out Dry Lube. It works great on my stabilizer worm gears and my slide rack& pinion gears.
