Just read that there are grease points on the UJ's and propshaft. Are there any other grease points?? Also what size nipples are fitted as I just bought a Silverline grease gun but the connectors are too small.

Should be a standard size. Can be tricky getting it on the nipples on the UJs. You might have to rotate the prop a bit until you can get it in. I have a flexi-pipe which makes it easier. 3 on each prop. No others off the top of my head. Diff oil needs doing regularly though.
