The only ones I know of are on the dripless packing on the driveshaft. Two on the rudder, and for each hub on the trailer axles.

Rudder port has one or two. I do not remember now how many. But they are there. I put a pump of grease into them every year at Winterize time.

Those are all I've found as well. Get a helper to rotate the shaft when you do that one. In fact, there are several good threads in the forums and the Inland Surfer guys made a Youtube video on it as well. I prefer to un-snap the carpet and remove the long center floorpiece - it dosn't take long and it gives me a perfect look at it.

Mine doesn't have a grease zerk on it. Is that wrong? 2003 Avalanche?

Your drive shaft?

[duffymahoney 10]

Yeah on the drive shaft.

dripless system or old style packing nut? new dripless has grease fitting for the seals, old packing nut uses the wax rope, thus no grease needed.

Thanks for your help. I could not find a grease zerk on my drive shaft either. Must have the older style also.

If your packing nut looks like fire's in this other thread, then you have the older packing nut

If this is what you have, then it will not have a grease fitting, nor will it have a water line going to it. It should have a wax style rope inside the packing nut in which will wear with usage. You can tighten then glad a few times. Once it bottoms out, then you need to replace the packing rope. You should also have a few drips from this system, as water needs to flow thru the system to cool it.
