[TR] Grease gun

[Allen Hess]

For the rear u-joint there is an extension (or there used to be, mine is almost as old as the car) that is smaller diameter but you have to hold it tight to the zero fitting. For the slip joint and front joint you remove the carpet and the plug in the transmission cover. The slip joint zerk needs to be pointing forward. But, the plastic transmission covers don’t come with this hole, so you have to make it. That was my experience, maybe newer covers now include the hole.
