Thanks one and all..  looks like there are a few more spots to hit  
and unless a better idea comes up, that I may have to disassemble the  
A arms and find a way to get another zerk fitting toward the back.  I  
mean I when I put this puppy together I cleaned the inside of those  
pins and the grease grooves but I'm not convinced that the grease is  
going anywhere other than out that first cork "seal".
