Richard, It’s a great deal on the axle. I’m really tempted but with shipping, exchange, and customs … it’s more money here. I do have a used axle made up .

Yes....this axle is packed full of grease....and has that distinctive "one of a kind" smell; if you've dealt with CV Joints, you know what I'm talking about. Now, time for some heavy duty plastic bags and heavy duty Zip-ties to secure under Vanagon chassis where hopefully it will sit for decades. Might save me, or another Vanagon brother, I am happy I bought it. > > > On Tuesday, August 17, 2021, 11:25:07 AM PDT, Neil <musomuso@gmail.com> wrote: > > Looking at the GW image of an EMPI complete axle: > > https://www.gowesty.com/product/axle-cv-driveshaft/3737/drive-axle-rear-m-t- > > This type of axle ships dry? i.e. can grease be effectively packed > into every "nook and cranny" using just a putty knife or similar? > > Neil. > > >> On 8/16/21, Richard Koerner <rjkinpb@sbcglobal.net> wrote: >> >> .....
