Greetings Michael, This zerk was the last one I greased, I was able to grease the u-joint, but when I pulled the grease gun nozzle off of the fitting the 45 degree part pulled out of the fitting body. It looks like the threads had been stripped as there were no threads left. In hind sight, I should have just tapped the broken piece back into the other part and be done. The car will never need grease for another 20 years. But, now I need to fix the problem. I take it that, moving the axle and lowering the upright is a problem and needs a puller of some sort? I was hoping to unbolt the axle and pull the upright down enough for room to screw the new zerk into the u-joint. Am I getting in over my head? Thanks for your help...................Art
