I posted this on the combine forum but everyone must still be in the field. I have a grease needle to grease sealed bearings with. Had one since about 1974 and used it often on the combines over the years. Has anyone ever drilled a hole in the dust shield of a all metal sealed bearing to grease it?

Your thoughts? Thanks, Chris
