Back on a horse 55 #1 Posted January 1, 2020 I couldn't find a grease zerk in the parts list for the pedals or the collar. But, the used clutch pedal I just bought for a C series does have an un-threaded hole that looks like it is meant for a zerk. Anybody know why WH apparently omitted the zerk on the pedals? Also, does anyone know what the thread size is on the WH zerks? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blackhood Bill 721 #2 Posted January 1, 2020 Zerks on WH’s are 1/4-28. Someone else will probably chime in on the the pedal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Tuul Crib 7,338 #3 Posted January 1, 2020 I agree with @Blackhood Bill I have drilled these out and tapped them with 1/4 28. I'm not sure if they had this in mind when they made those holes but they are perfect and they do need grease! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peter lena 9,101 #4 Posted January 1, 2020 back on the horse , tapping out or threading a pre drilled hole is very easy , make sure you use the starter tap , with the narrowest front point area , followed by the next size tap, ( use penetrating oil as your lubricant ) while you are at it , you could go after each zerk fitting as a base line lubrication , pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just drip a few drops of oil into each hole until it gets filled, work the pedal back and forth several times to distribute the oil, repeat as necessary until both pedal assemblies are working smoothly, and then finally wipe off the excess oil. A grease fitting would certainly work, but it's not totally necessary. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Works like a charm and since I don’t have a tap set my ole oil can does wonders...although can’t say I do it couple times a year though... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, if I'm being totally honest, neither can I. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
