Sure it's grease and not something like blue Hylomar sealant?

Hylomar stays like a sticky goo. Without knowing roughly where it came from it's a guessing game.

Sorry....... couldn't help myself Chalky!
![]() I've had a look under my 110 and can't see any blue grease or sealer, most of the sealers that I can see is black. Have you checked the rubber boots on your steering joints/ball joints mse? One of them could have split or detached itself, and who knows what sort of grease they are filled with?? Tim |

Smurfs.......I Like it
![]() I would suspect it's an anarobic sealant, which seals when there is lack of air, but remains liquid in the presence of air, or even Blue hermetite, which is semi hard. I expect it's round the diff flange. Regards Steve |

Makes sense - the excess (there was a lot) does wonders to lubricate the gate
