Greasing Query

I know these questions are very noob - but here goes anyway

What points on my Landy need greasing and how do I go about it?

Can I do it all with the gun below and using the catridge grease (to save mess)? Do I need anything else (any attachments)? I'm new to this greasing stuff.

Cheers guys.

Props, UJ's and maybe your TRE's if they have grease nipples on them. Remember to use a lithium based grease

If it has a grease nipple, grease it, and if it don't move, oil it or paint it!

get an air grease gun if you have a compresser,
on mine I used a higher spec marine grease

As stated previously, grease everything that has a nipple attached!
Just what you have will depend on what has been fitted by previous owners, some aftermarket ball joints have nipples whereas genuine now don't!

You may be able to do the job with that gun but it will be messy and frustrating, you will make your life loads easier if you get a Wanner or other good make, they are a lifetime investment, I have had my Wanner for thirty years

Quite a racy site at times this - all this talk of nipples.

I've to have my hands on any landy flanges, but I know my day will come if I'm patient.
