Yep, just pump grease into the UJs and the sliding joint. You might find yourself wishing that you'd done that before bolting it on...

There's not a lot of space to get a long greasegun in - I usually have to resort to shuffling mine forward and back on the drive to put the nipples in a location where the gun can clip onto them.

Lord Shagg-Pyle:
If you cant get the nozzle of the grease gun on, it may be worth filing two flats on the nozzle. That will make it a lot easier to get the nozzle and nipple to engage, if you see what I mean!

Pete:
Whatever you do. Don't try to fill it. Sliding section only need a couple of pumps of the gun, too much grease in there can cause problems.

I find the best thing to wrap round a prop shaft is the landy :wink:  :lol:

For as long as possible
