Has anyone an idea if lithium grease is a good alternative for high speed grease?

Opinions are very welcome

I used this in my old B4 diff and hasn't been rebuilt in years, but still silky smooth.

Do you mean using lithium instead of silicone on ball diff rings?

No instead of high speed grease. I'm gonna put steel gears in my diff instead of the nylon ones. And was wondering if lithium grease is a good replacement for high speed grease. So it will run smooth and wear less. As lubricant for the gears.

If you are talking about a gear diff, I would have thought you would want to run silicone diff fluid in order to tune?

Depends if its a sealed diff or not.
Pretty sure the one in my (RTR) b4.1 wasn't sealed.

If it is a sealed diff, use oil.
