Reply to "STEERING RACK"

Heims on military aircraft use grease nipples from the bottom of the threaded shaft via a long drilling up to the ball. Strength is not degraded in this way and in most cases it's as easy to access with a grease gun as on the head. I've done this with Heims used as shift-shaft supports. Use a new sharp drill and plenty of lube, and the steel shanks drill just fine, in case you ewant to 'roll your own'.
