1991 FJ80, a while back I had a shop who said they were experienced with Land Cruisers rebuild the front end -- axles, steering knuckles, maybe some other stuff, I don't remember.
The axles they used were aftermarket, they have two outboard grooves for a snap ring, I suppose for different applications, and a grease zerk in the end of the axle, which the stock axle did not have.
I've been pulling the pipe-thread plugs on the steering knuckles periodically and pumping in Moly grease per the owner's manual. Is it OK to use Moly grease for the zerks on the ends of the axle also?
I am assuming that the wheel bearings are lubricated by the oil in the front differential, like any other 4WD truck. Is this true?
Thank you.
