Knuckle service ?

Any idea of how much MOS2 grease it takes to do a mini. This will be my first birf job.

I have to get this done before the Jambo or I'll be riding bitch.

That all depends on how close you live to the auto parts store

I'd say you'd be safe with 3 of the smaller tubs, but I'd recommend going ahead and getting the big kahuna so you have it on hand.

I usually get three tubes, although two tends to do the job. Most people way overpack 'em.

AMEN!!!!

BTW I use maybe half of one of the small tubs. But then again I end up tearing down my axle probably 6 times a year for various reasons.

Probably because you only use half a tub of grease.

2 tubs is what I've used and I've usually get the Lucas RTG (Red Tractor Grease)

Remember, Bill. PYS till it's full. I can get by on 1/2 of the big Kahuna tub. It's cheaper to buy bulk.
Your talking a
2 to 3 hour job for your first time. You better have this done by the Jambo. If not we'll have to call it PBS tour (pack Bills sh!t)

Well, I got it done in 1 1/2 DAYS!!!

I also lost my "performance" clutch Friday on the way home. No more ceramic ZOOM clutches for me. Had to put what's left of the stock unit back in for now.

I thought I was bad. Heck I just got mine back running. I just need to fine tune the timing and carb then I'm set.
