Getting ready to change the rear tire on the S10 and want to lube the rear driveshaft while I have everything apart. Looking to pick up a decent grease and from reading the forums a moly based grease seems to be the way to go. Living in Canada the easiest spot to pick up supplies is Canadian tire. looking online they carry the following spec grease and I'm wondering if it will be acceptable for the rear drive shaft splines.

Meets the ASTM D-4950 requirements for Chassis Grease Category LB service for automotive and light duty truck chassis lubrication

Works effectively in application temperatures between -18°C and 143°C
NLGI LB No. 2
Available in 400g tube for standard grease guns

I have read all the post, I am asking if the grease I indicated in my post will work for this application.

If you get no reply may want to compare it's chemical properties and applications with what has already been mentioned.
Just saying. :-\
What's the name of the product?
I have used the Honda HN 08798-9010 MOLY PASTE (M77) paste in the past it works great.
MSDS Attached.
