Recommended Posts

hi all..... a quick engineering / land rover question.

i am having major problems greasing up the uj's on my disco's props. so i was thinking about fitting the longer type of grease nipples..... i have standards at the moment.

can anyone tell me what the correct size is for the longer ones?

Hi denviks

i take it you have a prob with holding the gun on the nipple and pumping the grease in, i had the same prob last weekend with my mates 300tdi, had to get the ramps out and drive the disco onto them, i have two pairs but you should be able to do it with 1 pair or a jack and axle stands.

If your grease guns connector is to thick to get into the cv joint and clip onto the nipple just put the connector on a grind stone and take a few laps of metal off and it will then fit. To make greasing easer get a connector with a flexible hose to fit your grease gun..
