right angle grease zerks

Post by xpconnor »

Hey Guys

Quick question. I want to buy some right angle grease zerks to fit the upper control arm for my 65 and I'm not sure what diameter or thread size I need? The new control arms came with the standard straight zerks and I forgot to grab them last time I was working on the car so have nothing to compare to.

Stock ones, same as here. 1/4 UNF from memory. I should have some if you cannot find them

No worries. I will have a scout around and see if I can find anyone who sells them locally.

Or you could try your local bearing center or Repco or Bursons and ask for grease nipples right angle ones at that.....

Thanks Pete. Will try there first. I Just wasn't sure if they came with different sized threads but 1/4 UNC sounds like the go.
