Default Outdrive lube

Guys;

All you need is a drop or two of SOME kind of lube to significantly reduce the wear on the outdrives. I prefer a Teflon based lube as it seems to work good with the least amount of mess.
The argument of dirt & dust being attracted to the lube and causing MORE wear is ridiculous. After many years of using this method on my R/C cars and trucks. I can tell you that it ABSOLUTELY is better than running the joints dry.
