Bravada front axle.avi

SHOW THIS VIDEO TO YOUR MECH!!!! If you have a 2002 or newer Chevrolet TrailBlazer, GMC Envoy, and Oldsmobile Bravada, the engine is also in use in the Buick Rainier, Saab 9-7, and the Isuzu Ascender. I took this SUV to have complete lube and sevice at the Chevy dealer. They did not lube this part. I bet most lube services place don't grease this area. If this goes bad on the road it could take out the oil pan and the engine!!

Pulling the axle and removing the bearing cover is the only way to be sure you are getting grease where it should be.

@rocstuff .Thanks for the quick reply. So do you need to drain the oil first? Since you popped the upper ball joint, is there a spring or shock that needed to be restrained first? and if that part (cover) is still OK,can it be cleaned,and regreased, or just buy a new one. Also would you also replace the actuator at the same time? Sorry for all the Qs..thanks again~

So do I have to pull the axle to re-grease it?

 Thanks for the great vid!
