Re: i know this is gunna me me seem like an idiot

"This is gunna me me seem like an idiot?",how so?

Sorry,that was funny to read .It`s a tough thing to do.Can you fashion a tube to the bottle and squeeze it?(may need a teeny hose clamp)Shops use a pump and a hook-shaped nozzle.I fill before install and have shops check/fill mine.I know that gunna me me look like a lazy idiot.

When you add fluid to the axle you have do the same way,a plastic bottle that you can squeeze with a hose on the end.
