Drive Axle Lubricant; Drive Shaft - Holiday Navigator 2003 Owner's Manual

Proper Drive Axle Lubricant Level:
• Regular inspection of the drive axle lube levels is an
essential maintenance procedure.
• The lubricant should be level with bottom of the hole.
• Important: The lube level close enough to the hole to be seen or
touched is not sufficient. The lube must be level with the hole.
• The differential is filled with API GL-5 or MT-1 type gear
lubricant, Pennzoil Gear Plus Super-EW 75w-90.
NOTE: When checking the lube level also check the housing
breathers. Clean the breathers if dirty or replace them if
damaged.
Incorrect Oil Level.
The drive shaft transfers the power produced by the engine to the drive
axle. A worn or out of balance driveline causes chassis vibration that generally
increases in intensity with road speed.
Greasing the Drive Shaft Universal Joints:
1. Check the drive shaft for looseness. If loose or worn, repair the
drive shaft as necessary.
2. Apply the specified grease at the grease fitting on the universal
joint. Apply new grease until new grease purges from all the seals.
3. If new grease does not purge at the seals, loosen the bearing cap
bolts and re-grease until all four caps purge. If new grease still does
not purge, disassemble and clean or replace the universal joint.
