Grease is the word
Bryanj:
Its never been a problem getting the old ones out but i have seen a lot damaged on re fitting as a lot of sockets get small too soon and peen over the ball in the outside if you see what i mean. Don't worry me just let me know if you want a modded one as i only do them when neded
MrDavo:
Mission successful! Old nipples pulled out with mole grips, new ones tapped in using a deep 7mm socket. Once I started pumping grease in I could hear things going on inside the swinging arm.
I was surprised how much back pressure there was once it was full, but I think the bushes and pin may be new, there is zero play.
At least now I can give it a squirt every 1000 miles or so and avoid uneccesarily wearing the bushes out. Yet agin, thanks for all your help. :)
