Spindle grease fittings popped out how to fix this?

[trainman 0]

Ok I have a question, what if the grease fittings on the spindles popped out and new ones wont screw in? I got this problem do I put a bigger size thread grease fitting or use some jb weld on the grease holes with a tooth pick so the spindles will accept the regular size grease fittings? Are the metric or standard?

Yes they are standard and I would try jb weld first. Good luck!

There are several sizes/configurations of grease zerts.

If you have the 1/8" threads, you can re-tap the hole to accept the 1/4" zert.
