Drive Line Tip

[Kinarfi]

My Trooper has 19300 kilometers on it and for some time I have been concerned about the noise from "back there" and decided to something about what sounded like a box of rock rotating.

I pulled the drive line out and looked to see how much grease was in the CVs. There was grease in there, but not a lot, so I got a pack CV grease and filled both to the brim and put the boots back on, took it for a test ride and WOW, all I could hear while coasting down a hill with the engine off was the sound of my new tires. Yay!!!!
