2004 w-22 driveshaft grease fittings???

[joelyn]

greased mine today for the first time and found 4 fitting along the shaft. 3 at each U joint section and one about midway on top of a stationary part of the shaft. did i get them all or should there be more? looked pretty good and didn'r see anymore.

also that stationary one midway down the shaft took a lot of pumps from the grease hand gun and never saw nothing come out. hope i put enough in.

Typically we see 5 grease fittings on a drive shaft if you have 4 universals.

[joelyn]

so that would be 1 at each universal U joint and that one that was on the stationary pipe midway of the driveshaft. thanks, just wanted to be sure i got them all.

Joelyn,

You probably won't see any grease coming out the spline/shaft connection. Just a few squeezes will suffice.

You can't fill the hollow shaft up--

I just changed the oil and lubed my rig today. Two or three squirts has always done the trick with the fittings on the drive shaft. And like DriVer just advised, I found five zerk fittings on my drive shaft.

thanks to all for the answer.
