Thanks for the reply Kevin, well no it dont leak everywhere just discharges and coats the ball, this is a picture of about worse case senerio discharge on the knuckle, 6 months after repair, and deep groove in straight ahead position, and pitted

Checked level 6 months after repair,, no need to add,,, leakage in a sense of Class 1 leakage, yes leakage is broke down into 3 classes, Class 1 leakage is desired, preferred, just talked to a wheeler yesterday with one of these rigs, said he put some grease on the exposed steel, figered he should, Yep he is right,

But this does it for you,,,

As it should the seals are in fact designed for it,,,



And Keven you say you use this all the time ? where ? in What ?

Thanks a bunch Frank

Why is the axle all wet? Did we just wash it off? Maybe to hide something leaking?
