Hmmm, interesting. I know that on my 923A2, when you grease the rear trunions, you loosen the caps and pump grease until the old starts flowing out. I guess you could do the same on the hub. Just loosen the drive flange bolts and pull the cover out slightly. Then pump grease in until it runs...
Hey Buggyman, do you still have the number for the distributor? I need to replace one of mine. I am not looking forward to splitting the wheel though!!

Good luck getting your deuce moving!
Here's a couple of the latest pics...
Sounds like a sweet project Rizzo. I like your idea of using cutout flares to keep the COG low with the big tires. That will be a serious mud whumping machine.
Major league excitement yesterday afternoon. I took Kenny's advice and installed the lock nut from the right side on the left spindle and mounted up the tires and wheels. I checked all fluids and fired it up. I let the air pressure build and then slipped it into 1-5. I felt the tranny engage...
