The EZ26 is due a service, what do people use for putting oil into the track hubs?
squeezy hypoid oil bottles or an oil syringe / pump

500ml Chinese takeaway tub under each bung. Drain into these.

Empty the tub and refill it or a new one with clean gear oil. Suck this up with a large medical syringe and then shoot it into the hubs. Easy peasy, takes about three of the largest syringes you can get on eBay.

Also have same as @CPS & also a Samoa pump, which is fine if you just use the same oil all the time, I find I always have lots of different oils on the go & cleaning that thing out is a real pain!

as much as I love my pneumatic oil dispensers for filling Utto into transmissions and axles, these final drive hubs only require a couple hundred ml of gear oil through a very small hole, and a large medical syringe is by far the easiest and cheapest way to do it.

Them syringes are an utter lifesaver for all sorts of faffy jobs...the needles some come with are scary though😳

Just ordered a 2 pack syringe 350 and 150ml £10 👍🏼
I've always got 100ml ones here ... use one every Monday and have given up keeping them afterwards ... 52 a year mounts up over 12+ years :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: (and a varying selection of needle sizes) :rolleyes:
