steering box grease
Johnz's job is better done than mine. I just took a spare bolt the same size as the filler check bolt, cut it until it was about 1/2in long and drilled a small hole. John's looks professional compared to mine-steve jarrett

Ken,
Still think for C1's, that the method DZAUTO and K2 came up with is better (Zerk fitting at the top fill point, and remove the lowest side cover bolt).
Drain the lube out via the bottom side cover hole. After it has drained, pump in the grease via the top fill point until clean grease comes out the bottom side cover hole.
Took less than a tube of moly fortified chassis grease for me (used an air powered grease gun).
This will not work on C2/C3 boxes.
