There are no "grease" points on the rear axle. The gear oil is checked and filled through the plug in the differential cover.There are no "grease" points on the rear axle. The gear oil is checked and filled through the plug in the differential cover.
The differential, often referred to as the "rear", is the gear housing which transmits the rotation of the driveshaft to the rear wheels. A four-wheel drive truck also has a differential for the front wheels.
Just fill the the rear differential will fuild comes out and your done.
Broken gears. The differential or ring gear or pinion gears are broken.
Vehicles with front wheel drive have a straight rear axle meaning there is no gear housing in the rear axle. Vehicles that are rear wheel drive have a gear box in the middle of the rear axle to change the rotation of a drive shaft to turn the rear axle. If you look under a full size pick up truck rear axle you will see a large gear box (typically referred to as a pumpkin) in the middle area of the axle. That is the gear box differential.
the angle gear is also known as the rear differential. Hope this helps.
