Hey guys, taking my 86 Ramcharger in soon for an oil change, and lube.
I would like to have them grease the front D44 bearing while its on the rack.
Is this done the same was as on the old full time trucks with an access hole in the face of the rotor that lines up with a zerk?
Or is there another trick to getting to these?

Well that was a huge step backwards in design.
Wonder why they did that?

Wow, I never knew that.  Yeah, after having a newer one apart you gotta tear it down. Or drill the hub for an angled zerk.
