Careful where you stick that thing mister.....;-) The one I have problems
with is closest to the transfer case. This is going to be hard to describe,
but here goes... The front drive shaft attaches to the transfer case with a
u-joint which is attached to the yoke of the drive shaft. On the other side
of that u-joint there should be another u-joint. When you look in between
those two joints you should see what looks like some sort of seal (somewhat
soft, like neoprene). That is where I carefully slid the grease needle in
and squirted some grease in. roated the drive shaft and did the "other
side" also. Unfortunately it is raining quite heavy here so I can't go out
to verify exactly what I am saying. I wish I had a photo, it would make it
more clear. Take a look and see if you can see what I am trying to explain.
Most of all look for that "seal", if you can see that you will have found
the correct spot. Let me know if I can be of any more help and let me know
how you make out.
