Knuckle grease very liquid

eleblanc · 07-05-08, 10:28 AM

Just took the axle out of my front, and one side the grease in the knuckle was nice, the other side it flowed right out when i remove the knuckle, I guess it is the oil seal is going away?

Unfortunatly being in Canada even if Marlin seal are better for more dollar, and i would like to go for something better. But the truck has to be out of the garage asap. So i'll got some toyota. I'll post how much i pay, but probably more expensive the south of the border.
