Lubing the driveshaft - Mobil 1 question

Hello everyone,

I am ready to perform the job, and I found the Mobil 1 pink grease that everybody is talking about.

I found it in our local store, but it says that it meets NLGI specs, not NLGI2 that toyota recommends. Do I have the right product?

Pictures attached.

Thanks!

Another good option is Lucas "Red "N" Tacky #2". It is NLGI #2. I have used it for 4 years and it keeps the clunk at bay between greasing!
 
I recall reading the Toyota spec'd a NLGI lithium grease with Moly. I didn't see Moly in the grease when I checked Mobil 1 website. Maybe I missed it.

I have been using the Redline lithium grease w/ Moly.

For those wondering what Moly is: Moly is short for molybdenum disulfide, it is a dry lubricant added to some lithium synthetic lubes that bonds to metal surfaces which gives protection even when the grease gets pushed out or broken down.
