I am replacing the ground strap to the chassis. The thought is to grease the box before I put the plug back. Manual says to put 5 pumps of grease in it. Given no nipple, how to do it?
 
Would you know off hand what the thread size is? Also is there some way to keep the fitting in and also provide a place for the ground strap?
Also how often to grease?
 
Looks like 3/8 X 28 for which I could not find a Zerk. However I took the end off my grease gun and it covered the hole sufficiently to get the grease in it
