## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does anyone know what size the grease zerk is?  Mine was missing.**
A: A local hardware store should have a selection.  A local parts store as well.  You might consider taking another one out when you go to the parts store.  I have recently bought several Moog parts.  I do have an extra one I'd send you for the cost of postage.  Not sure how to get it to you as Amazon may not give out contact info.  Otherwise measure the hole with a bolt or rod then measure the rod.  I would guess at 3/16".  It takes a 5/16" wrench to install.  Hope this is helpful. Alan
