Lucky 8 front DS

I just got mine from Lucky8 yesterday. It all seemed to be top notch to me, greasable joints in all the spots. All the welds looked good and balancing was done, so I'm a happy camper. Bolted it in straight away and everything was nice and smooth so far with about 80 miles combined driving on it. It definitely seemed to be a much better quality unit than the one from Atlantic British that I took off.

I bought one off ebay, from Lucky8. Not sure if they are doing something else with their eBay shop, but the shaft I got had the balance weight welded on right next to the slip yoke grease zerk, making it impossible to get my grease gun to seal on the zerk. Also, didn't come with any nuts or bolts. Nothing critical, but still a pain in the ***.
Also, my grease gun won't fit in the front U-Joint, so while I have now replaced my driveshaft, I still can't drive the bleeping thing. Anyone know of where they sell a smaller grease gun fitting, or am I gonna have to grind mine down????

If you're referring to the GBR shaft, L8's is not as nice as the GBR but both of them are priced accordingly. I have a GBR rear and it's a very nice product. We used to sell the ones that Lucky8 sells and they didn't get many warranty claims over all the ones we sold.
