    Thanks, Brody, I can visualize it from your description.

    OK, can't believe I forgot this one, I did it to mine but it was years ago, I found it on CCOT's site and remembered it today while I was driving. the square drain plug on the Birfield, take it out, drill and tap it for a zerk, fill your Birfs at will with a grease gun from here on out without removing the plug. I think you can even find a pre-drilled one online.

    Yeah, I was going to mention that, but it never seemed worth the effort or money for the pre drilled one. I simply take the end off the grease gun, stick the tube sans nozzle, into the hole and pump it full. Be surprised how much grease comes out the tube without the restrictive fitting on the end..

    The knuckle doesn't need to be full of grease. Just enough to pack inside the birfield and a mild coating of grease on the outside of the birfield. If you have to pull a birfield out on the trail, you'll be wishing the knuckle wasn't packed full.
