These qualities can be obtained in S.A.E. 90 E.P. (extreme pressure) gear oil for
summer and winter.
It is advisable to change rear axle lubricant every 5,000 miles. Always keep oil to
the level of oil filler plug (A), Figure 23. The old lubricant can be removed with
a special suction gun available for this purpose. Refill with two and three-quarter
pounds (or pints) of fresh oil of proper specifications. Replace filler plug securely.
Steering Gear
The steering gear housing should be lubri-
cated every 5,000 miles. Use a good grade
of S.A.E. 90 E.P. (extreme pressure) gear
oil in summer and winter.
Remove filler plug (A), Figure 24, and
fill housing until lubricant reaches level of
filler hole. Replace plug securely.
EVERY 10,000 MILES
Spring Covers
Spring covers on front and rear springs (on Super Models only) should be
removed and repacked with viscous chassis lubricant every 10,000 miles.
Universal joints
The front and rear universal joints are
fitted with needle roller bearings and
the lubricant is sealed in at the time of
assembly. See Figure 25.
At 10,000-mile intervals the universal
joints should be disassembled, cleaned
and repacked with viscous chassis lu-
bricant.
