"AFTER OVERHAUL OR CHANGE INTERVALS

Fill the axle assembly to the bottom of housing fill hole as

shown in the illustration below. It is recommended that

following an overhaul, each side of the axle be jacked up

seperately to approximately six inches and held into

position for one minute. This procedure will allow

adequate lubricant to flow into the wheel ends and help

eliminate the possibility of premature damage to wheel

bearings and seals. Lower the vehicle to the floor and

allow ten minutes for lube to return to normal level. Check

and refill assembly to bottom of fill hole to replace the

lubricant that was directed into the wheel ends."

and use gravity to overcome the molecular attraction that holds oil to

the level housing.
