Default Grease Zerk

I noticed that one of the grease zerks is missing on the front axle of my 782. I've never had a cub with them missing before. How do they go in, and where do you buy them? Would Tractor Supply have them? Thanks guys!

Also, what's the correct size for them? Sorry for the question, but with my sight, they are hard for me to see.

If its missing... it could be broken off...you will need to easy out the old one and re-thread the hole and the new zerk will thread in easy

I think they are 3/16 Allen and it's been awhile since I messed with one but I think they are press in too.

Yes they are a press fit.
Remove the spindle and knock the remaining piece thru.Then put the new one on.

One place I remember seeing zerk fittings was at a place here in Northern Minnesota, I just happened to stumble upon them. It was a fleet supply place and they actually had this outside along with a lot of other newer Cubs and different brands. You can probably find them at a fleet supply place if you have any North Carolina.

I'm glad this topic came up, because I have an axle that was missing a grease zerk on the right side. It did not have one. I had to drill a hole thru tap and install one.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
