H lower bolster bushing new style?

neblinc · Jun 15, 2009

Putting back together my neighbors H and he ordered new bushings from CaseIH for the bolster shaft, they do not have a hole for the grease and no spiral, just a coating of some kind.
Are these greaseless then? Anyone use one yet?

A lot of the parts that Case-IH has for these older tractors are NOT the original design, but are, more or less, a "will fit" type of replacement.

If it were mine, I would install the bushing, and then remove the grease zerk, drill a hole in that new bushing, and replace the zerk. It HAS to get some lube from somewhere.

Just a thought, if it where pre-drilled ? then how wood you line it with the zerk? I could see it being done this way at the factory. thanks DANZIL OKLA.

Thanks guys, will drill my own hole.
I know the last one I put in I had a heck of a time lining up the hole, but it was a good half inch size hole.
