[QUOTE="ogdobber, post: 1176893, member: 22629"] Actually china has successfully made a zerk that flings grease. Lol. When I put my new slip yoke on I just used the (china) zerk that I had on the old one. Pumped the yoke full of grease to the point where the yoke slightly moved away from the transfer case, so there was a bit of pressure, but not much. When I pulled away the gun and wiped off the excess, the zerk was slowly spewing grease out the tip. So I found my new made in USA stainless zerk and all is good Sent from my VS988 using Tapatalk[COLOR="Red"] [SIZE=1]---------- Post added at 05:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:33 PM ----------[/SIZE] [/COLOR] the seal on the back of the transfer case would take a lot of pressure in either direction for fluid to get past it...the grease isn't going in and the transfer fluid isn't leaking out to "oil the yoke". If it is, you have a bad seal and it need to be replaced. True the nickel is supposed to sacrifice itself, way easy to change the yoke vs the output shaft. however, a small amount a grease will soon turn to none and the wearing will start. metal on metal will always wear, softest will go first. That is why keeping it properly greased is essential and the only way to do that is pull the driveshaft (hassle) or put a zerk and grease EVERY oil change. I will keep you posted, i am 100% confident in this fix [/QUOTE]
