Hi All, I just started to install all new front suspension parts (from
one of the usual big suppliers) on a friend's BN6. The new king pins
and the lower trunnion big cup nuts came with new zerks installed. My
Plews brand grease gun connector will not work on any of these zerks -
it's too loose and the goo squirts out around the connection, even if I
shove it on as hard as I can. My gun works just fine on the original
zerks on the rest of the car. Soooo, I tried to replace the "new" zerks
with the original AH zerks. Well, the threads are different. What do I
have here?? Are the new zerks metric or something?? I thought all
zerks were created equal once, but maybe that's been changed by
outsourcing. How about the connector on my grease gun - are there
different styles/sizes nowadays?? Someone out there please help me out.
Sheesh.....
As always, many thanks,
Jack "Dry Joints" Brashear
