Fellow Cruiserhead and Hatemudder, Johnkappus, is in Colorado en route to Ohio with his, new to him, '89 - 60 series.
As the trip progressed John found that the knuckle seals are deteriorated. You know the deal - grease/oil combo spraying everywhere!
Can he limp home like this? Or is there a chance for a major seizure? Could he add grease periodically to the knuckle, keep oiling the center diff and be fine for the next 1500 miles?
Any suggestions or advise is greatly appreciated. Also a little concerned about brakes with the grease coming out as it is and wiil continue to do without new seals.
He will be in Denver today at some point. He's driven from Washington to Colorado without issue. Found the leaky seals in Utah. Now what? Still needs to get to Ohio ASAP.
Thanks, Tom
