Default CVD squeak.

I am being hounded by this squeak in my Typhon, for a few weeks. I have been chasing it and finally found it by spinning my freshly cleaned off CVDS, they chirp like stepping on a mouse, several mice.

I had been hitting them with Rem Dri lube Teflon spray, but that isn't making them shut up.
I just did a tear down(again) and put a tiny amount of losi black grease in the pin blocks. Too much of that stuff leads to a giant mess as it gets thrown around though.

What do the racers use?

I grease them and put a piece of heat shrink tubing over them.

What do racers use? New ones. I will rebuild my cars half way through the season and change bearings once a month. It's better than making the ride of shame after driving 5 hrs to race only to break down.
