I don't know what lube is needed (other than something super thick) but I do know that the inside needs to be COATED everywhere. As the gearbox pops open easily, I opened mine and WOW everything was covered in lots of it. So copious amounts are needed. I would contact Tom at SYC Powwersports and see what he thinks and what he has.

Thanks for the info Gentlemen. I appreciate the help. When I pulled mine apart it had some lube that appeared to be standard wheel bearing type of grease but I was surprised that there wasn't more in there. Do you know if the seal ring is redily available? The existing one looks okay but I am a firm believer in keeping fresh seals whenever possible, especially since we live out here in the desert.
