A Question for Cookie

Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding! We have a winner!!
A couple of days ago I had my right front hub off and decided that I would try Cookie's method of greasing the front hubs. I had a devil's-own time getting the grease through the hole, so I made this adapter.
Remove the ABS sensor, insert this, pump a few shots of grease, replace sensors. The best part is, the hubs don't have to come off to do it.
Cookie has been greasing his hubs for a few years (I'll let him fill in the details) and hasn't had a hub bearing failure as a result.
After I had one hub fail, I thought I'd give it a try.
Only time will tell...

It's about .041" material, (either 1/32" or 1mm), and the I.D. is about .333" (about 8.5mm).
Hmmm, can't find anything on the AS568A chart that fits this.
Closest thing I can find is a 1.5mm x 7mm I.D.
Maybe Timkin had them custom-made for themselves.

Its been 18 months since I replaced my drivers side, so I really cant remember what the back looks like. My truck is a NON ABS on the front. Does this mean I would have a plug in the ABS hole or are the non abs unit bearings machined without the hole. If machined without the ABS sensor hole, could I just drill and tap them for a zerk?
My drivers side went out at 195K. The pax side is still OE and has 245K on it. I would like to have the pax side last as long as possible, as well as the newer drivers side.
