My issues are only related to having an upgraded 1310 series drives shaft. The stock driveshaft is a 1300 series. If you have a stock drive shaft, you can visit https://landroverforums.com/forum/general-tech-help-8/propshaft-rebuild-29302/
It was very helpful, even in finding information for my 1310 series.

Otherwise Tom's website is Tom Wood's Custom Drive Shafts - Tom Woods Custom Drive Shafts Custom Driveshafts Specialist I got his number off their About Us page.

As long as you have the correct tip for your grease gun the flush fittings work fine. A traditional zerk works fine too, just slightly more likely to get damaged in that location.

Ok, I think I'll go with the Precision 380 u-joints with the flush mount zerk.

If you get them in person be sure to check the box before leaving the store to make sure the zerk is present.
I didn't and found a missing zerk. The 380 has an oddball thread size that's pretty uncommon. Fortunately Precision was extremely helpful. I called them and they sent me a box of 10 next day fedex, gratis.

Good tip, will do. It is Federal Mogul that owns Precision?
