Front Drive Shaft Install Question
#1
![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
Hello all!
I am going to be reinstalling the Front Drive shaft in my AWD 35t. Just recently got the car as I bought it used and just recently found out it didn't have the front DS connected. Or even on the car. I don't have much info on its history, but by what I can gather it was sold at auction, but driven very lightly. Only had 36k miles on it.
But, the car has been super solid! Drove it nearly 2k miles from OH to NV with zero issue apart from learning about some bad O2 sensors which I've since replaced. (Funny that O2 sensors are still a problem, went through the same thing on my old S-type).
Anyway, why this was removed I have no clue, definitely one of the strangest things I've seen on a used car. And apparently the car is ok without having it, but its something I need to address.
I found a replacement Drive shaft that I'll be putting back in, but I wanted to know if there is a specific type of grease (or if any generic will do) that needs to go on it or anything else that needs to be done/checked on the install.
Any help is appreciated
