final drive -- dry !!!

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
 
Thanks poobah, I appreciate your post.
 
Look for any post by @idk - in his signature you'll find the manual. It's a good start naturally.
 
I just removed my rear wheel gearbox to lube the shaft splines and discovered the factory used ordinary grease to both the shaft splines and the wheel splines. Both still looked new with plenty of clean grease around the splines (9500 miles). Maybe they did it like that to ensure the splines stayed wet with grease? I did purchase the Locktite moly and will probably reassemble the shaft splines using a smear of both type (moly and standard) greases to the shaft spline. I will assemble the gearbox to wheel splines with the Maintenance Manual recommended grease.
