Since most of the drive line is out of the 280z, I've been cleaning up some of the parts that I have removed. In this case, I am working on the half-shafts. Using a LOT of engine degreaser, a wire wheel on a drill, and brushes, I cleaned an prepped the shaft for painting. The prep-and-paint covered some surface rust that had emerged after 40 years.
With the shaft now clean, I can screw a zerk fitting into the universal joints and send some new grease into those needle bearings.
