[DeTomaso] Rear upright removal, photo gallery

[Mark Tumbarello]

I have the assemblies that grease via the end, but I recently had the uprights gone through by Quella. He said he used to use this method, but has changed to the drilled upright. He simply capped the end of the shaft with an allen set screw. He mentioned the later method puts the grease right where it's supposed to be on both bushings. YMMV,  Mark
