I would drop the rear diff gear oil ASAP as well. I just picked up an 85' escaper with only 40k miles and the rear diff gear oil looked pretty knarley. Recommend a high grade synthetic gear oil with 50% Lucas heavy duty. Only takes a minute to do 15/16 socket on my one ton rear end...

We (wife, two kids, dog and myself) just stepped into a 85' Escaper. 40k miles with the 22re. Very clean rig. Haven't even taken it on the maiden voyage yet. Love this site, what a wealth of info. Saved my behind already with the whole 5 lug rear axle issues. This one has the heavy 6 lug dually, otherwise I wouldn't have got near it. Thanks guys for the info and time you invest into this site. Without your knowledge we rookies would be learning the hard way!! Northern Minnesota up in Gods country..
