Zerk fitting size
« on: July 01, 2011, 12:23:43 PM »
Hello,

Anyone out there know what size the rear suspension fittings are? I would like to get some angled ones to make greasing a little easier. The top ones are a real PITA.

Thanks

Paul

Will any available thread length work? I've been meaning to add some angled zerks where it's hard to reach past the mufflers.
Doing a search, I see thread lengths 4.6 to 5.5mm. I guess that's not much difference. Any of those lengths should be fine?
