Is the action of the CDL and Diff Locks related in any way to the dash light
The diffs, the light is purely an indicator, other than that, useless. The CDL, the circuit that turns on the light, also turns on the axle lockers, so if it's failed they wont work. The most common fail is the switch, sometimes it can be exercised and made to work. If/when it needs to be...- Words: 83

Stupid knuckle grease, wheel bearing grease question.
The bushing limits grease migration between the knuckle and the hub. As long as the knuckle isn't overfilled (packed full, no air space) it's pretty effective. The other cause is axle seal failure, can cause the thinned grease to be pushed into the hub. The birf to drive flange splines should...- Words: 67
