    Hi All,

    I'm about to go change the T-case and Diff oil as well as greasing the prop shaft for the first time. Okay, so all the nice how-to guides on here say to pump grease into the zerks until grease comes out clear. Okay, so my question is, where exactly does the old grease come out? I realize I'm forcing new grease in under pressure, but where should I look for the old grease to come out?

    Thanks!
    Adam

    Build thread coming soon!
    It will come out from under the bearing caps. Depending on how tight your seals still are, you may not be able to pump them until it's clean. I can only get one and a half squeezes into mine and then it pressures up with almost none coming out
