I recently built a 10" lift for my 87 gasser and the pinion bearing went out within 3 hours riding time. The rear has a severe angle in the swing arm. I was wondering if the steep angle is causing the front bearing to not get enough lubrication?? If that is the case Can I add more than the recommended oil to make the gears sling more oil?
