Title: driveshaft grease nipples
Post by: gnj588d on April 24, 2009, 15:13:20

Just doing the lube service everything went OK until I came to the driveshaft,the manual says it should have 3 nipples but I can only find one  on  the slipshaft are the other two hidden somewhere or is it possible my car only has one,its a 66 230 I have done a search but have not got a specific answer.              Cheers Mike .

Hello,

Some of the early models had a grease nipple on the center driveshaft carrier ( look in the small half round cut-out).  The third one was nested in the rear universal.  Not all the W113 cars had these two.
