And if you’ve never done a u-joint of any kind before, don’t be skeptical about how easily the needles can drop out of their little pocket of grease.
It happens far too often to be considered an occasional thing.
It’s easy to be diligent and have them stand in place, but it’s far too easy to get a tiny little bit careless, and have one or more fall out.
And when we say fall out, I mean one can come loose and remain inside the cap. So when you press the cap on, you distort the needles and make it useless.
