Hi all,

Does anyone know the size of the zerk fittings that went here?  Mine are gone since the mower deck repair...

Thanks sir!  Got them and they worked.  You know.. I just had those thin bearings replaced end of season last year... And I am not sure the dude put any significant grease in those bec it took a whole 3 or 4 pumps.. I felt like my last mow there was a bit of vibration in the deck right at the end.. slight but you know - you can tell if you have an ear for it..  I shut it off before hopefully any damage.. Popped off the covers and there were no fittings (above was old pic) .. Now that I filled them with grease I sure hope they  will be ok..

Those cross bearings are staked into the stations. Make sure they didn't come loose
