I bought a U joint greese tool from Parker Hall and was going to use it last night, however was unable to as the dia. of the threaded end on the tool is to big to fit into the U-joint greese holes.
Are there different threaded sizes of these holes?
Thanks

Hi Tom W,
Not real sure, I have what looks to be the orginal slotted screw plugs.
I spoke to Hilary Raab last night and may see him this weekend with the car to get his opinion.
I also spoke to Parker Hall he was unsure of another size.

Grease Fittings.
Hi William
Mine has the slotted screws, but I have a nozzle with a rubber cone on the end and works quite well. You just hold it into the hole with a little pressure and inject grease to your hearts content.
If you have a nonstandard zerk fitting, there a nozzles which adjust to the different sizes.
I have no Idea where I got them, I've had them so long. Probably J.C.Whitney, many years and cars ago. But I bet a Auto parts place could get them.
Cheers
