I have tried contacting snowseaker to purchase, however his inbox is full. Is there someone else I could buy a zerk fitting from?

I'm sorry, I honestly have been leaving my box full just so I don't have to respond the same thing over and over again. I've had to empty my box every month or week at times.

It is normally always the same question to which I always copy and paste this message from a post I made a page back on this thread:

How to get grease fitting:

I figure the total shipped (lower 48 continental united states only) is $5.90 for one fitting.

Like I mentioned in the sticker thread I got rid of my paypal account so I can only take mail order. Anything for payment is really fine, check, money order, cash (even had some send exact change jingling around in the envelope lol), doesn't really matter to me.

I normally wait till there is a batch of 10 or so to be made because of machine setup takes some time and I am usually very busy. I do this simply to help out the community and fellow ford owners. I don't make anything on these at all and is another reason it sometimes takes me some time to get the done and sent out. I need to get so many paying jobs done every month to pay the bills and feed my family before I can make free stuff.

He makes them for free and only asks that you send him $ to cover the shipping ($5.90).

Anything over that is appreciated, but not required.

They are handy to have so I send him $20 for mine. Besides, I live in Canada so shipping is more, plus there is always a difference in dollar values.

Just so we're clear here, Andy doesn't sell the fittings. He would have to be a supporting vendor to sell on the forum. He makes the zerk fittings for free and only asks for shipping to be covered, which is allowed.

I did have it at $5.40 but then there was some minimum wage war, post offices went on strike, and then they raised the shipping rate 50 cents. I know I took a hard hit that day.

Hey Andy, I am a little late to the bandwagon but I am wondering if you still make the grease fitting for the hub? What is the lead time these days? Thanks.
