Grease is the new oil!  New racks come greased, and I've had a rebuilt 
the same.  It would have to be left a very long time to 'solidify', and 
given the gearing I can't imagine it would ever lock the rack solid - 
very stiff maybe.  Something else in this case, I suspect, a few minutes 
work to narrow it down.
