> got a conundrum: The TM sez that the knuckle should be filled "to the
> level of the plug opening" (note 7, fig 106) with GAA (grease, Fig 102).
> This doesn't make sense to me for a couple of reasons:

> 1. How do you get grease to 'fill to the level of the opening', unless
> it's really thin?
> 2. When I drained it, I got GO (gear oil) out. Don't think the seal
> between the knuckle and the diff is bad, the diff is still full, and no
> oil seeped out when I jacked up the opposite side.

> I'm thinking the TM is wrong and there should be GO in the knuckle. The
> TM I have is pretty old (3 may '55) and the truck is a 67.

> Anyone out there have any comments/suggestions?
