I searched for a bit so I’m sorry if I missed it.
The u joint on my driver side axle broke and spit its guts on the road. Made a couple clunks and seems to drive okish if I go slow.
I have a couple questions:
IF the seal doesn’t puke all the axle fluid out, is it drivable until then? I’m currently hundreds of miles from home with no tools. My presumption is it is drivable until the axle loses its oil then it probably locks the wheel/wheels.
I may try to have a shop repair it. How many hours are they likely to charge me?
Thank you so much for any help. You are greatly appreciated.
