Default ERA Lube Question
Bob,are the front drive shaft U-Joint and Slip Yoke greaseable from beneath the car? And are there any lube points on the ERA outboard-brake rear besides the U-Joints?

Both the driveshaft U joints are reachable from underneath the car but you'll need a gun with a narrow neck. Those and the half-shafts are the only rear fittings. It couldn't hurt to squirt a little grease on the bottom rose joint on the front and rear shocks though.

IIRC, the slip yoke gets its lube from the transmission oil. It doesn't get anything external.
