I walked out in my garage this morning and noticed grease on the driveway. Grey grease. Its locations was near the location of where the front drivers wheel is when my wifes 80 is in the garage. So I went and looked under the 80, and this is what I found.
Clearly, I have been neglecting the knuckles. I have owned it for almost three years-- I bought it with 109k miles and it now has almost 130k miles. I don't have any reason to believe that the PO did any knuckle work. I added grease once throuh the placebo (inspection) hole and have recently changed the gear oil, but I have been putting off doing a whole knuckle job.
The good news is that this is very recent. The bad news is that I need to put a couple hundred miles on this vehicle this weekend, and will not be able to do a full knuckle job for at least a week.
Will I be ok?
