Just curious, are those grease fittings on the brake calipers? Trying to find all the zerks on my rig. Are there any at the rear wheels?
 
Your probably looking at the bleeder screws for the brakes. Don't try to pump grease in them! All the zerks I know of are up front. There were several discussions a while back on how many and where.

This post should be moved to the Comedy Section. >:D
 
I didn't think those were grease fittings...but man I could see how one could mistaske them for one. I've only managed to find 6 of the 11 fittings. I guess some more searching is in order. Thanx. Everybody's a comedian!
 
There is a thread on the "11" zerks, and it even has photos. Try searching "zerks"

AVid is correct. that's funny. don't worry though. it was not a dumb question. the only dumb question is the one you don't ask. better to ask us this question than to tell us the grease would not go into the zerks. ;)
