I replaced all the spindles on my 44A deck several years ago and I have 1 that refuses to take grease even with the air grease gun. My deck has the "grease cups". The zerks themselves are apparently "press-in". Guess it's time to tear it down from below and clean them all out. Penetrating oil/heat from above I guess.
