When mine get done they will all have them.

@rocket When you do your U-joints, be sure to opt for the Dana/Spicer with the zerks in the end cap. Make lube a 5 minute task....takes about 1 minute per joint. Access is wide open.

Well I have no excuses. My cargo lamp panel is on its way. Here’s the flea bay pic coming.

I only need the little panel. Not the whole thing. I have a few switches left over as well.

Price a couple years ago was around $20/ea. Very little difference with zerk location. Spider or end cap were within a buck or two.

So just spit balling if ya took the originals and zerked them yourself. Would that work? Prolly no room on the end of the cast 4 way nevermind.

I would say it wouldn't work or be very difficult. You need to cross drill the spider with intersecting bores. Drills that size and length tend to snap inside the hole.

I assume when the spider is cast that a core forms the cross passages.

That would be my guess.
