Re: 1932 universal joint lubrication

I continue to lubricate the joints on my '34 Eight with heavy gear oil but I expect a grease would also give a satisfactory result as long as the grease wasn't allowed to harden and plug one or more of the passages to the needles. Heavy oil is probably the safer choice and it was Packard's recommendation.

Note that replacement joints generally had an alemite fitting, the OEM joints did not.
