Anyone have any experience with a US crane knuckle boom.I can't find a grease fitting anywhere on the turn table.The pinion gear has a removable cover for adding grease.I have been packing grease in there.So far the big gear seems to be well greased but is it getting to the main bearing.I think they are out of business ,can't find them on google search.I can take pix if it will help.thanks al

Did already looked everywhere just not there .I will go over it again thanks.When greasing the pinion gear and rotating it i get grease coming out from all around the turntable may be it's getting to the center bearing.

I think you need to put that new skid steer on that truck and bring them up here and I will help you look. ;D
