Maintenance question...zerk fittings
I was having a poke around under my truck last night and noticed the zerk's on the prop uj's look mighty small....did not try my grease gun yet.
Are they stock size ...anyone...anyone...Bueller ?

On some rigs (esp the wifey's Cherokee) I have had to use a "needle" fitting to get grease into them. This is a steel tube goes on the end of your grease gun hose and has a point at the business end. Clean the zerks off first, then press the point against the check ball on the zerk and grease away.
I use synthetic grease on all my rigs. I used to use Amsoil grease, but was too had to track down a distributor when I needed it. Now I buy the synthetic at NAPA. I think it is made by Valvoline.

I jack the rear and rotate the drive shaft to get at the fittings. No problem with a standard grease gun.
My son's Sequoia requires a reduced diameter nozzle on the gun. I have found one on the net, looking for one locally.
