I did grease it all well. It was a friggen mess from rust in the knuckle housing and lower king pins. I cleaned up all the rust, painted the housing in and out, and was very liberal with the grease everywhere. I did not pack the housing full of CV grease but did coat every surface with a good layer of grease. At first I could not get the hub and rotors on the spindle because I had too much grease on the bearings and the spindle. Wasn't easy getting it back off either because the grease hydro-locked it on the spindle.
It breezed through again. That is 8 consecutive years without a fail. Although, it is only the second time the tester was able to take it through the gears without having to stop and repeat the test or without reving the snot out of her. Once again, it was a woman. She can drive my rig any day.
Air Care is dead in the water as of the end of the year. But CVSE is still suppose to have their mobile test truck out checking commercial trucks. I have only seen it doing its job twice.
