When I was young(er) my Dad told me that when greasing UJ's on drive shafts to push grease in until I hear it crackling out around the seals (on a SIII 109).
Now I have D2 with a greasable front driveshaft is this advice still relevant or do i need to put less grease in (I grease it every 10 000km when i do the oil change)
Advice appreciated

I'm a great believer in purging the uni's when you're greasing them.

If your D2 has an OE driveshaft, you do realise you can't get grease into the centring bearing when you are greasing the uni's ? (yeah, dumb design.....)
