For those with non-serviceable "unit bearings" in the front, check this out. I have not done it yet, but plan to some day. Just trying to help out.

Re: Dynatrac Puking
They should have 2 fill holes IMO. 1 for reg setups & 1 for rotated setups. Or at least include the fill amounts for stock set ups, so you are sure you have enough but not too much fluid.

Re: Dynatrac Puking
They do that to save money, & so people that want to rotate the axle for better pinion angle can use the same axle without underfilling it. Many aftermarket covers are like that.

Spare parts are a great idea if you have the room. U-joints-hoses-belts-fan clutch-t stat w/gasket-& tools for same is a good start.
