    So I just greased all the zerk fittings, 8 total, on my 4WD. But the 2nd to last zerk fitting towards the rear, what I understand to be the Propeller Shaft Sliding Yoke took like 10+ pumps of grease and still no squeeze out.

    Where does the grease go? How do I know when to stop?

    It's the joint labeled B below.

    My understanding is 3 pumps Max and don't insert so much to expect it to ooze out, that is causing damage and is old school approach, let it go and simply lube more often keeping to the 3 pump limit. Luck.
