double cardan joint zerk fitting removal socket size ?

[ycl1688]

I have 2001 4runner, on rear shaft, double cardan joint one of the three zerk fitting, the first one has problem with squeezing grease, with 7mm socket to get the fitting out, other fittings seem to fit with 7mm socket, what is the problem ?
I had 6mm zerk fitting on the drive shaft.

I don't understand what you are asking, can you re-phrase it?

You can replace the zirks if they aren't working. Someone listed here exactly what size they are, so search for it.

the point is out of 9 zerk fittings, 7 are 6mm fitting with 7mm socket to get it out, 2 of the fittings cannot, it happens at the double cardan joint.

what will you do to get the zerk fitting out of #4 and #5 out ? because the fittings are stuck, grease is oozing out of the fittings and not going in.
