You are right about that, this is definitely a threaded hole, as I removed the remaining fitting by unscrewing it to try and match it up.
Those drive ins/barbed-cause they remind me of plastic pipe fittings, I've noticed a tight grease gun tip can and will pull them out, I particularly do not like them for any kind of ag or construction equipment, our challenger compact has them on the loader bucket pins, quick tach pins and so on, some have come out, and of course I'm the only one who will drive one in even if temporarily, to grease, or even remove, clean and re lube a bucket pin because I can't keep a fitting in there, obviously time to drill and tap some in. I know they save money on the mfr.'s production, darned replacement tail wheel on my rotary mower has one, same darned problem, I don't think, from these experiences, they are worn a darn, maybe its the small ones or something I am missing, I would not buy a new piece of equipment if they were all driven fittings. Some of theses fittings, threaded or not, don't hold up either, makes a lot of work, searching/repairing sometimes for the simple task of greasing a pin, or what have you when the grease gun tip will not release and pulls the fitting out. Something seems off on that too, maybe an old tip may have some wear or the fitting dimensions are off, tip slides on, have to hold a certain position or the grease goes out the side, all the monkeying around, they often times come out, real pain in the neck and can be time consuming.
