How to remove and replace non-hex head grease zerks?
Almost all of the zerks on my 149 won't take grease and I want to replace them. Bought a box of zerk fittings and a zerk removal wrench and imagine my confusion and consternation when I realized that the old original ones aren't hex headed for easy removal and replacement.
How do I pull the old ones out? Is there a special tool for that? Googling "zerk removal tool" just brings up the one made for the hex headed ones. I even have one that was snapped off at the head (2nd picture). Am I going to have to drill that one out? And even if I get them out, I presume the holes probably aren't threaded for the new ones, are they?

I believe they a push in or a drive in zerk. Hopefully someone will correct
me here if I lead you astray. Might be a push in zerk or could even be a two piece zerk I suppose. I have simply taken them out with vice grips. If the push in types really bugged a guy I suppose you could tap the holes and put in your threaded ones. I you can get them out without to much damage I would bet you could soak the zerks and clean em up to take grease. Looks like you will have to drill out your broken one. Here is a link that might give you some stuff to ponder. https://www.onlycubcadets.net/forum/...t=59889&page=2 Ken

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.
