Dual Head Grease Fitting

Yahoo Message Number: 61841
A few weeks ago, I posted a request for info to locate a dual nipple zerk fitting for the U-joint. None of our local auto parts store could find it for me, but they might have if I had the part number when I talked to them. I finally found one at Drive Train Industries in Denver. I bought two.
If you ever need one (I'm sure I am not the only one on the surface of the earth to need one) ask for a Dana Spicer 232830.
Thank you to those who responded to me off-line.

Greased lot of zerks as a lubrication engineer (grease monkey), in my youth. Never saw such a critter. Whats the purpose for the double nipple. Never to young to learn something new!

The purpose is so you can access it no matter what position the drive shaft is in.
