u-joint grease

Recommended Posts

Hi to all,

 

I am doing the 70.000 km services and find:

 

1 front wheal bearing faulty

 

1 SWING ARM bearing faulty

 

I will take it to the dealer cos I dont have the tools to change them... :unsure:

 

But I have trouble trying to lobe / grease the u-joint...

 

I cant make the grease get inside with my grease gun! :angry:

 

How can I be sure I do it correctly? :huh2:

 

And How can I clean the u-joint? :luigi:

Best Regards!

I know what you mean about trying to fill a grease gun so in the end I went to a marine chandlers and got some

marine grease gun refil cartridges and slotted them inside the grease gun.

When you pump new grease into the grease nipple it will force the old grease out around the u-joint, stop when you see fresh new grease.

As for cleaning the u-joint try using motorcycle chain cleaner and a used toothbrush.
