If your talking steering knuckles where the CV is, then its grease. I use this red INOX stuff works a treat.

Don't be getting Toyotas confused with old Rovers to often.

thats how i have always greased them up, i use castrol cv grease (constant velocity) its a high temp, extreme pressure grease and is great... but there is other greases that will do the same thing.
