Best Grease for Whizzer New Departure Coaster brake?

Actually after rereading the tube, the stuff I have works up to 350 and is supposed to have a dropping point of 500 degrees. Anyone heard of a hub getting that hot? Also has anyone tried the heavyduty brake disk that come off ebay?
 
Yes, I have heard of hubs getting quite hot. My hub got so hot once that it discolored. If it's getting that hot it indicates to me that the cone nut is adjusted a little too tight. Back it off a wee bit (like 1/4 of a turn) and see if things improve. But don't back it off too far. You don't want to have side to side play of any more than 1/32 of an inch. That's how I solved my problem.

Sadly I purchased the HD kit and lost the sequence of disks and clutches. The HD kit has less parts because the disks are thicker. My rebuilt brake doesn't work well, but who needs to stop anyway!

If you purchase the HD kit, please let me know the arrangement of the parts and how it works and I will try to fix my rear brake again.

Have fun,
 
Hi KilroyCD,

Not sure what my problem is, but I looked and that is the way I installed them. When I get time I will remove the HD set and re-install the original parts and see what happens. I am sure I started and ended with the #27 discs, but I will re-check again when I get time.

Have fun,
