Hello, my Land Rover owning career now spans 4 weeks since I bought a 1975 S3.
So, as a precaution against previously bad maintenance I have given it a full lub service. Engine, gearbox, transfer box all fine, both differentials full but oil very black.
However, the swivel hubs seem to be full of grease instead of EP 80-90 oil. Is this someone cutting a corner or is it a valid alternative to using oil?
Appreciate others experience on this one.
