Is there a Grease Zerk on the Gen-Y Hitch Shock Absorbing 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box GY48GR?

Question:
I just purchased a Gen-y from you guys. Pin Box item # GY48GR. The video said there was a Zirk fitting to grease it, but there is no grease fitting to be found on mine and also was wondering what the hole was for on the side where the ball mounts. Thank you

Welcome back and thanks for the picture! For whatever reason that is beyond me, that video has a different Gen-Y pin box in it. Your Gen-Y Hitch Shock Absorbing 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box item # GY48GR doesn't have one because it is a newer model. It would be right in the center of the back of the connection to the gooseneck ball. As far as the hole goes it is part of the auto latch function that this pin box has.
