Default Remember to align all the grease fittings on each drive shaft

Hi Louis

Tip from an old motor pool sargent who looked at one of my trucks when I was restoring it. He pointed to the drive shaft and said I had not aligned all of the grease fittings to point to the same side of the shaft. The two ends and the slide fittings. Reason, if you align all the fittings then it makes greasing the vehicle easier.

I did not take all 4 drive shafts off the C60L and correct the problem, but the next drive shaft I did I was careful get them all on the same side of the shaft and he was correct it does make it easier to grease if you don't have to keep rotating the shaft to get the next fitting.

Cheers Phil
