After replacing the shaft, I'm getting some creaking from the crank
area. I've greased up the screws for the gearbox, which helped a
little, but still getting creaking. I'm thinking I need to do
something with the cranks.

So, new cranks came in, got those installed, and greased 'em up.
Probably could have a couple more places to add some grease, but
didn't have any terrible creaking on the way in this morning. So
that's good.

I think I know the source of the creaking: the bottom bracket/drive
shaft assembly. Didn't grease that up at all when I installed it.
Will have to take it off to get grease on it.

Took the shaft assembly out, greased it up, put it back on, and no
creaking. Sweet. I did notice that my seals are all bad though. No
idea if I get get those replaced or fixed.

And back to creaking again. Not sure when I'm gonna get around to
getting some grease down there.
