Are The Spindles of the CE Smith Trailer Axle Beam # CES84XR EZ Lube

Question:
What size and part number are replacement zirk fittings for this hub?
asked by: Paul
Expert Reply:
Hey Paul, are you asking about replacement zerk fittings that would fit the spindles of the axle? If so, this is not an EZ lube axle so it doesn't have those or have ability to have them added. Or were you asking about Bearing Buddies that replace the cap with ones that have grease fittings?
I know it would seem like the grease fitting solutions would make life easier for greasing the hubs but in actuality we find that it's pretty easy to over fill the hubs with grease using them which causes seals to blow out and create a lot more work. We strongly recommend just greasing the hubs by hand.
