I'd like to know more about the oiler idea.
I have never managed to get grease to flow through my semi girling stub axles, it prefers to escape from around the upper blanking caps despite these being tack welded in place by Vince Leek when he refurbished them. Goodness knows how much pressure is being applied from the lever type grease gun. Even warming the grease and the stub axle doesn't seem to help. Maybe the clearance between pin and bush is just too small ?
