Hey all. As usual, I'm trying to get rid of some strange noise in my Beetle. My suspension creaks and groans and makes other unconfortable and/or obnoxious noises when I drive over any bump. I'm pretty sure it's becuase the torsian bars have not been greased in a very long time. I want to grease them, but I have a few questions first. The zerk fittings on the front arm or so clogged with ancient grease and dirt, I don't know how I'll ever get new grease in there. How should I clean them up, and unclog them? Also, where are the fittings to grease the rear arms? Lastly, what is a good grease gun to do this with. I saw a gun in an auto parts store that looked possible, but I didn't know if the hose would fit the zerks on my '73 German car. Suggestions? Thanks for the help. ~Anthony
