grease fittings broke off

Anonymous-0 · Jul 30, 2008

I have a farmall super c. Several of the grease fittings around the rear end and a few elsewhere are broke off. What is the best method to put in new ones.

Try a left hand cobalt drill bit first, if that doesn't work, use a good screw extractor like Rigid brand.

if they are'nt to tight, a smal spiral easy out will do the trick. i have taken a few out,by tapping the square taper of a file in it and twisting the blade.

Sometimes you can find an allen wrench that you can beat into the part thats stuck and screw it out.Easy out.Small chisel.If any is sticking out maybe saw a groove in it with a hacksaw and use a flat screwdriver.

Have "lightly" driven a Snap-On screwdriver (the ones with the hex under the "broken" (how did that happen) handle and used a wrench to take out a stubborn one.

Trick is that some of the zerks are threaded in and others just tap in and hold like a flooring-type ring nail. For the former, you can assume that there's reasonable lubrication in the area and a light application of something on the order of an E-Z Out will do the trick. On the latter the same effort will just spin. In that case, the Heli-coil, Drill-Out, drill-in-reverse type rig might do the trick as they pull at the same time they turn.

I have a tool that has been in my tool box for 50 years to remove broken fittings and clean poor threads.
