Did some 'net searching and found that FORD calls for: "Silicone Brake Caliper Grease & Dielectric, Compound XG-6.... ESE-M1C171-A"
to be used for the lube on the the Ranger Brake Caliper and Slider Pins.
My searching led me to a web-site.. "bobistheoilguy.com" who posts alot of "tech stuff" on lubricants. I found a cross reference to what Ford calls for and it lists ALOT of manufactures of like ESE-M1C171-A that Ford calls out.
I've ALWAYS just used regular ol' DISC brake lube. Current stuff is....CRC Synthetic Brake & Caliper Grease.
It's black colored (moly). Haven't had any problems....that I know of BUT.....
This CRC stuff is definitely NOT what Ford calls out.
What are others using? And if it's NOT what Ford calls out... why?
