Default Re: Spring Shackle --Grease Hole Up or Down

Your new parts fit snug...so the gaps in there are very small, too small to pass grease easily. The grease that you (hopefully) applied during installation will be sufficient for many miles, so there is no need to immediately grease them up.

If the grease fittings are threaded, you may want to temporarily replace the fittings with high pressure Zerks. Or you can use a thinner grease for now.
