Greasing the Drive Shaft Universal Joints:
1. Check the drive shaft for looseness. If loose or worn, repair the drive shaft as necessary.
2. Apply the specified grease at the grease fitting on the universal joint. Apply until new grease purges
from all the seals.
3. If new grease does not purge at the seals, loosen the bearing cap bolts and re-grease until all
four caps purge. If new grease still does not purge, disassemble and clean or replace the universal
joint.
Greasing the Drive Shaft Slip Yoke and Splines:
1. Check the drive shaft for looseness. If loose or worn, repair the drive shaft as necessary.
2. With finger, cover the rear air hole so grease flows to the front seal. Apply the specified grease
at the grease fitting on the slip yoke. Apply until new grease purges and forces finger away
from the air hole in the end of the slip yoke. Greasing interval is 10,000 miles or annually.
Warning:
Rotating shafts can be dangerous. Rotating shafts can
snag clothes, skin, hair, hands, etc. causing serious
injury or death. Do not work on or near a shaft “with
or without a guard” when the engine is running.
