Not so easy to get molybdenum grease

I found a few sort of no name brands of grease fortified with this, but I was looking to follow the toyota reccomendation and use NLGI2 for the spiders and NLGI2 with Moly for the others as specified.

I am using Castrol MP chassis grease which I found locally, but not luck with the Moly version. I did finally locate the Castrol contractor special grease which contains 4% moly, have any of you used this, it looks like to buy it I may need to buy 10 tubes which I obviously don't need.

Greases can have .001% moly and say fortified, so it just seems like getting the right grease would be a good move.

Thanks for the input on this.

I think a lot of members use just one grease on the whole drivetrain. By 2006, Toyota changed the specs to read "moly or lithium-based NLGI #2" for the slide yokes. For DIY'ers, it's silly and costly to have two kinds of grease on hand. I use Mobil 1 synthetic lithium-based grease on everything.
