I am in the process of greasing my wheel bearings before my first long summer trip and I have quickly ran up against what I am sure is a simple question. I have started with the passenger side and with the wheel off, loosened the axle nut and pushed the axle in. But I can't get the axle to slide in far enough to get the greaser to slide inside to make contact with the bearing seal and inner axle shaft. It is about 1/8 inch short of being out enough. Its not the nut holding it from sliding in further, it feels like the axle bottoms out in the transfer case and wont go further...what am I missing?
