I don't think there is enough space to get that in I can hardly get my finger in there.

On another subject are you still looking for the wheel well trim

Yes I am. Its a two piece trim apparently. Thought I had one but it fell through.

I was wondering if that gizzmo might be too large to get it in there. Ive never attempted to grease mine with everything put together. I gave it a good shot when I had the front end broken down all the way to the pump.

If youve got a line on that trim I would be interested. I did find it new on some web site, I hope I saved it. Good thing the other deal fell through cause come to find out I could order it new for less than the guy wanted for the salvaged one. I got distracted with other stuff in the mean time.

I have a 28 Argosy that I am parting I think it is the same size, I don't know how much they are new. I will be going to Sturgis SD in Aug if you are not in a rush. I could swing your way so I don't have to go through Chicago

That would be really great. I think they measure the same but Im not sure if the Argosy is a single piece or two piece like the 310. The 2 pieces cost about $45 bucks each new. So for that kind of money I wouldnt want you to make a special trip to swing through unless you just wanted to avoid Chicago to our north..we are about 120 miles south of the city. But I would certainly be delighted if it worked for you. My to do list on the 310 never seems to get shorter, knock one off add two. So not in any hurry.
Are you going to drag Tony along to Sturgis? Nawwwwwwwww

Thanks and just keep me posted.

That thing will not fit in the space. My fitting was damaged so when I replaced it I put a 45 degree fitting back and it's much easier to grease.

Just as well...the last time a crazy Brit went south to the U.S your precious White house went up in flames circa 1812.

Cheers
