    M35A2 front pinion bearing broke down

    Oh I was!! But I was more scared of a wheel bearing going out and watching my wheel come off and hurt/kill someone. Ive pulled over every 1-3hours and checked everything on the truck. Besides looking at the wheel bearings and not seeing any liquified grease and physically touching the bearing...

    M35A2 front pinion bearing broke down

    I have not figured out what I’m going to do to cover them but I’ll make shift something. Either duct tape or cutting up an oil jug and drilling holes thru it!

    M35A2 front pinion bearing broke down

    I just made it into Monroe Louisiana, I got scared of water taking out a wheel bearing so I didn’t remove the drive flanges yet. We’re currently eating then heading to Oreillys to pull them and finish up the trip!

    M35A2 front pinion bearing broke down

    Thank you sir! I’m sure this diff is probably low from leaking out of the pinion bearings/seal. I guess there wouldn’t be any point in filling it up tho because I’m pulling the drive flanges?

    M35A2 front pinion bearing broke down

    I’ll check tomorrow to check on machine shops open here. I looked up videos on replacing them but didn’t turn up much. I found one talking about them and they recommended just replacing the entire chunk instead of rebuilding.

    I just made it into a hotel in Jackson. I have not done that, I didn’t even think of doing that! I’ve got 577 more miles to go til home. This may be a stupid question, it’s supposed to rain tomorrow all day while driving thru. With the rain and exposed shafts/bearings do you think that it...
