Hi, tried to send this yesterday, but it did not go through.

> =EF=BB=BFThe GT6 has Spicer u joints without zerk fittings on the =
halfshafts and on the driveshaft. I have the entire rear end =
disassembled and am now inspecting the ujoints. They look good, no =
visible wear and there was no play in them when on the car. Do i just =
pull the cups and put some more grease in, or should the little buggers =
be totally cleaned, needle by needle and re-lubed?
> I=E2=80=99m always reluctant to change the order of anything, i.e. =
mixing up the needles.
> No way to flush them out with grease as one does with the ones with a =
grease fitting.

> Thoughts?
