What grease are you guys using when you rebuild the gearbox? And where is the best place to get it?

Andrew,

The owner's manual for the CA specifies 140w gear lub. When I rebuilt the ross steering box on my Dad's CA I used the 140w. If I remember correctly I bought it at Tractor Supply. Although I have seen some fellows insert a grease zerk where the fill plug goes and pump it full of chassis grease. I guess it works either way.
