Has anyone been able to find the adapter to use on these damn flush mount grease fittings?According to JKS it's a common part availble every freaking where, just not western Pa apparently.
The part number they give is a Lincoln 83278. I've looked on the inteweb as well with no luck. Anyone????
I'm not familiar with that you speak of. Every set of JKS discos I've installed has had the regular grease fittings with the little dust covers on them. Are these the ones that look like the head of a bolt with a small grease hole in the middle? Maybe just swap them out for the normal?
If I wanted to hear from an ass, I'd fuckin fart.

Could be, I have no idea what it looks like. I've been search Lincolns website trying to find a photo of it.
Not yet, I'll stop on the way home and look.

That's not the grease fitting, that's the needle you use to fill it.
Whoops I'm an idiot and had to reread your post, do you need the fitting itself or the needle to fill it? 66 Auto should have both either way.
Yup, I think that's it... it's included in this tool kit.

Yeah Tom I need to grease them. I already have those stupid things on there now.
Seems like a PITA. I don't know why they used them. I think it will be cheaper and easier just to change them to regular fittings.
well...that is the part # 83278. ill bet that is what you are after.
but just change them out and you'll be happier.

Check McMaster-Carr
We unfortuntly used some of those at the place I worked this summer and McMaster had what we needed. I think they had to call and ask for them though, they werent listed on the website or in the book.
If there is enough room to run regular zerk fittings I would switch them out. I ran them because of clearance issues and the fittings I needed were an odd thread size (those were the only ones available).
There's really nothing in the way of putting regular fittings on there. It looks like it's just a standard 1/4-28 fitting.
sway bars are over rated take the sucker off ..LOL
Been there done that. Was not fun to drive after the SAS. Very scary on road manners.
Never greased mine, never looked back.

Well about 10 minutes and $2 later, it's done. All greased up with no where to go.
Happy to see those disconnects worked out for you Dana, espacially since they were in pretty cruddy shape to start.
