Type of Lubrication: Multi-purpose Grease
For instructions on how to access grease zerks shown
in Figure 5-13: See
“Accessing CV Driveline Joints”
•
The constant velocity joint should be greased in a
straight position forcing grease through the passages
and into the cavity. After lubrication, grease should
be visible around the ball joints.
•
Grease fittings located on the u-joints and driveline
shields should be lubricated every 8 Hrs of operation.
IMPORTANT:
To extend the life of the constant
velocity joint, extensive lubrication must be
