4 of the grease zerks on my 300u's 2pt fasthitch dont take grease, they are rusted/plugged up. It's a shame as the right side part that goes to the drawbar is kinda sloppy. The rockshaft has no play in it tho. The left side leveling device was replaced with a turnbuckle, but the threaded tube has been long replaced with a standard pipe and the "eyebolts" of the turnbuckle just have holes drilled through them and 5/16" bolts used to secure them to the pipe, so far they havent broke, haha. I cant find a turnbuckle to replace it, as none have 1" hollowballs on them from tsc, do they sell them elsewhere? Originally it had some sort of leveling device, but the chances of me find that are not very good. Anyways, to the point of my post, I need to replace the grease zerks. I got the old pressed in ones out. Just put a pair of vice grips on them and used a crowbar and popped them out, got all the gunk dug out and aired them out. Now here's the thing, dad brought me home some new zerks from work, but I cant seem to find any taps for them. Dad says they might be NPT. Can anyone confirm this? They are small little buggies for NPT. Does case still sell the press in ones? ( i wont be going to the closer dealer anymore, as their return policy just ticked me off, 40% restocking fee my butt, the other on is about 5 min further with no restocking fee, except on special orders its 15% which is reasonable). I'm gonna stop by ace tomorrow and see if they have any and if it says what size thread they are.

The whole experience can be marred if one moves too fast and makes too many assumptions that they can just use "as is" some parts they should be closely scrutinizing and possibly attended to. In such cases, rework makes what could have been a fun project turn into an irritant or even a nightmare. Minor Irritants To give you an example of an minor but irritating proble
