    '91 swivels

    Im curious,,Ive just rebuilt my leaking front swivel, greased what I thought required it,,then saw whats obviously a fluid filler hole. What goes in? How much? How many other bloody surprises are in store for me in this bloody thing?

    Time to get a workshop manual from the markets section.

    And google/search 'one-shot grease' or 'oil filled swivel' etc - for information on the different ways to lubricate your CV joints.

    How could you rebuild a swivel without reading the manual?
    What preload did you put on the swivel bearings?
    Every swivel of every solid axle 4WD with closed CVs has either oil or grease in the swivels whether they be Nissan, Toyota or LR.
    Your 91 will have a filler hole and a drain hole and a level hole as well , as it originally had EP90, but you can use LR one shot grease which as the name suggests is the correct amount for each swivel.
    Hint, to fill the LH swivel, turn the steering to left lock and vice versa.
