Engine & DrivetrainDiscussions about the engine and drivetrain of your vehicle.
This is a discussion thread titled "chasis lubrication", within the Engine & Drivetrain forum, part of the Technical & Vehicle Assistance Forums category.
We had a thread going about grease zerts and so on.... one of you mentioned a lincoln lubrication adaptor for greasing the drive line... can you post the part number again? Thanks.
Cappi,
I bought mine from Sears Hardware for 4 dollars it actually screws on to the grease gun. Also it worked great I did try to lube the driveline without it and lets just say I had more on the ground than in the zerks. I than bought this needle and was finished in 5 minutes or less with no mess.
Hey thanks for the tip on getting that needle-nose fitting for the grease gun, got it at Sears - it worked like a charm!
Biggest problem I had was getting the driveshaft aligned so that those little fittings were pointed so I could get to them (crawl under the truck, look at the alignment, pull it ahead, crawl back underneath, ....) Any suggestions?
I know that Toyota specs say to use multi-purpose grease and molybdenum disulfide lithium base chassis grease for propeller and drive shaft maintenance. Do you guys have two grease guns to do the job?
Is there a grease perhaps a synthetic version that I can use on the propeller and drive shaft? All purpose type.
Originally posted by cappi I use a synthetic moly-fortified lithium base grease for all points.
Ditto what Cappi said. I use Valvoline synthetic. As to an earlier question, I do give it just a pump, maybe a pump and a half. Not enough to see it come out of the fitting, you kind of hear/feel it.
