Front Axel Lubrication on 100
 
In reading the 100 chassis manual the only mention of lubrication of the front axel pivot point is if you remove the axel. Is there no grease zerk on the pivot point?
Thanks

Nope, I don't think so.
Neither my 70 or the 100 has 'em.
I fixed that though and installed fittings in both of them.
They have a tendency to seize the pin in the axle and then break the spirol pin in the front bushing.
Then the only way to get them apart is to cut the axle with a Sawzall and press the pin out.
A new replacement pin will have a grease well turned into it, or at least it should have.

Thanks for that information. Seems odd that there is no fitting. Anyway, thanks.

It's something that IH fixed later, at least by the 1x4/5 series. Not sure if the 1x2/3 had it or not.
