Can I just keep pumping new gr

Can I just keep pumping new greace into my u-joints until all the old seems to be out? how about the gimball bearing? Ive got a 1994 Cobra outdrive and a 5.8L. I am planning to do this before winterization/storage. Got any good tips on anything else I should look at/ replace while the drive is off? (planning on just removing the 6 nuts and just taking off the upper and lower together unless someone suggests otherwise)

"When lubricating the gimball bearing, nota that the grease should come out in the center and not between the bearing and gimball housing. Do not over lubricate."
 
is the zerk on the left side o

is the zerk on the left side of my transom assembly for the gimball bearing? Is there a steel tube connected to the bearing housing or someting? Im trying to figure out how htat works. I will only be able to see where the grease comes out with the outdrive off right? (look through the bellow or something?)
 
"There should be a grease nipp

"There should be a grease nipple on the stb side with a tube going in to center, yes. Drive must be off."
