To grease or not to grease

Post by 66STNG »

Just a quick one.
I'm rebuilding the diff and replacing all the bearings in the centre. Question is do I pack the taper bearings with grease, or not as they will be swimming in oil...I'm assuming you do NOT pack them but I just wanted to make sure.
The wheeling bearings come pre packed.
Just the 5 bearings in the pumpkin I'm concerned about..
Cheers

You can lube them with some of the oil you will be filling the diff with but don't pack them with grease.
