I think you have found them all, 3 on front prop shaft and 2 on rear.
Note, later Terranos don't have the nipples on the front prop shaft, so tend to wreck the UJ's as they also have fixed front hubs too on some models.
This was a step backwards.:doh

very odd indeed, could be the shafts have been replaced?? I have not come across an early one yet that did not have greasers, Rick

there are none, there is a blank plug in the idler but I do not think this was meant to be a grease point, as why plug it? Rick
