I've just been investigating a rubbing sound coming from the rear end of Christine, my '77 Spit 1500, and I've discovered two things which I found a little alarming. But first, the noise itself. It'

Problem 1: Free Play. This is most likely to be free play in the diff. This is quite normal, although it tends to get worse with age. I'm not sure how much free play is considered acceptable, but on

AFAIK, you should *not* put grease into the trunnions, although it will take a standard grease nipple. I believe that you are supposed to use the same libricant as the diff, hypoid oil, etc. If the D

I may be wrong - my understanding was that you should use gear oil in the Front Trunnions, to lubricate the rotation of the trunnion when the steering is operated. Everywhere else (rear bearings, st

Richard, My memory says the same. Gear oil at the front and grease at the back etc. That's what's in mine. Alan --Original Message-- From: "spitfires-owner@autox.team.net" <spitfires-owner@autox.team
