Is there any grease fittings on my 300ex? if so where?

Posted by: "BLAHH"300!!

sounds strange huh..seems like they would stick one some where
maybe at the rear axel or at the top of the swing arm.but nope....
i just found out yesterday that the 2 by your brake calipers are brake bleeder.s i didn't know this and greesed em' about 10 months ago..i don't guess it hurt anything we'll see...

Yes, greasing the swingarm pivots is a pain in the ***, I don't know why they didn't just put fittings on them. THe A-arms are less of a pain, but it still would be nicer for fittings on those too.

i just did my a-arms....i'm thinking of tackling the swinarm next but man man.....i'ma' need some info on it first...if you have done yours let me know what all steps to take...to get it done if it's not too big of a deal i might just go do it...

Why are you greasing your plastic polyeurathane bushings? I've never reased my quad.

Polyurethane busings use a different kind of grease, and I would imagine it would need to be greased evrey so often, I have them on the sway bars on my car, I re-grease them about once a year, but I'd imagine with the conditions a quad see's they would definately need it.

when i took my a-arms off they looked like pooh..they needed something in there bad... i figured greese would work better than orange juice so i used that.... it was squeeking pretty bad...it was just time for a once over....
