Yes! I have the extra fittings on mine, and it seems to make it easier to
get the fulcrum pin properly lubed. Doing it only through the original
fitting requires that those cork seals between the kingpin and the a-arm be
nearly perfect, which they rarely are. Mine are just drilled and tapped,
but I was careful not to crank the fitting in too hard.

Subject: zerk fittings
anyone put an extra zerk fitting on the lower A arm on a Spridget? This
would better lubricate the trunion bolt as wear took place. Will drilling
and tapping work? The end plug looks to be about the thickness of a dime.
