spindle

alright, the spindle (passenger side) that connects to the front axle in my 77 f250 2wd is making a terrible creaking noise. we have tried lubing it through the grease "nipple" on the bottom, but that is blocked up. how could we possibly get that thing greased up? the haynes manual says there is a fitting for the grease gun on the top of the spindle... i didnt see one right off the bat though.
thanks for any help

Take the axle assy out and take it to a shop that has a press and the proper tools to replace it.
