I never did see my previous note on the list server,
so at risk of boring y'all, here it is again.
==============================================================
Do I really REALLY REEAALLYY need to pull the whole
drive shaft on my 72 midget just to grease the 2 U joints?
My grease gun as an end just about 1/2" in diameter. No
matter how I turn the prop shaft, not enough space opens up.
Must I disconnect the shaft at the rear axle to grease the
rear U joint? What's gonna happen when I get to the front
U joint? Does the whole shaft need to slide out so I can
wiggle the joints to open up more clearance.

Or, should I shop around for a smaller grease gun end?
