Been there buddy :(

I hope that did not get on the tread. That would certainly make for some interesting handling. :eek:

What's the solution here? Repack w/ higher performance grease?

turbo axles packed w/ Krytox, unless I here a better suggestion.

The RSR took cooling air thru the 1/4 windows and ducted to the half shift joints

Bill, you really are driving the wheels off of your car. :)

Bill Verburg 08-29-2012 01:13 PM

Hopefully repaired

Genuine RS axle nuts added to boot

here is a mod some of the cup car guys do to keep the grease off the rims and tires: They plug the vent hole.... and install a similar diameter stainless tube between the boot and the half shaft. Its held in place by the metal "tie wrap" on the end of the accordion . That way the gases that build up spurt out towards the center of the car rather than to the outside
