there are more pics on my site, i'm not sure what "break hubs" are but if you buy a manual it's pretty outlined.

I think you may have found the brake bleeder nipples on the calipers - for gods sake - DONT try to lube those!

Bill B,

I think you are right

LOL

Oh well,

No harm done (lets hope they are closed)

thanks for the tip...so where are the nipples at?

By Bill Bettridge (Billb) on Thursday, September 13, 2001 - 11:26 am: Edit

One on each u-joint (4 total - assuming you don't have a rotoflex) and then also on the driveshaft slide joints (2 total - one on each propshaft)
