Were you able to get the lock n lube to engage the u joint just behind the flywheel through that small hole in the frame?

[@daze65]

For that one I switch to my regular gun, with the small end, I plan on drilling the hole, so the lock & lube will fit

@@daze65 Even with the small end on my grease gun I had trouble getting it to release from the zerk fitting. When the dealer installed the power beyond for my backhoe they elongated the hole for me but it still didn't want to line up so it would snap on and release properly. I finally just bought a grease needle for the front main universal joint and it works just as well as the small grease fitting, without all the hassle. It might take a little longer but it beats struggling to get the grease gun on and off the zerk fitting and it saves messing around with a die grinder or hole saw...

@@1965l88 Thanks for joining the thread. I think I will try this first. I had sent my tractor in once a year (from 2018 to 2022) but it went from around 200 USD a year to 900 USD last year. I just can't afford that anymore. And who can say the dealer even greased that zerk anyway.

I got mine to grab it with the lock and lube.

@@RoseCityReptilesTX with the regular lock and lube or extended one? Through factory hole or did you make the hole bigger?
