Tires arriving end of week and want to lube both ends of the drive shaft. To grease the forward splines you need to remove the swing arm and need the T3880062 socket tool to do so. Anyone know where I can buy said tool and not have to wait weeks after ordering it from Triumph? Looks like a simple 38mm four pronged socket.
You'll be wasting your time. The other end stays clean as a whistle. I couldn't believe mine when I took it out at 50,000 miles. The rear part sure although since you have a Roadster you might be surprised. I heard they switched lube or actually applied some and people are reporting good stuff about it not that it doesn't need it because it does get slide movement.

Yep, that is right. We're still talking drive shaft splines; just the rear. You still have to pull the bevel box. It has the female splines. I lube them also and drop a spoon full in the bottom. Grease the male. Then while sticking the box back in I use it to scoop the shaft up and align the splines. She slides in every time no problems. Use the same grease on the wheel splines just don't go heavy or the extra will find its way out.
