It's on the truck frame right side right behind cab. Plastic housing I have no idee about cartridge or no . Kinda hoping it had 1 for ease of refill. I hate the thing.

Alamites was a first for me, always called and heard zerk. -
Alamites is a zerk? I'll be darned...thought it was something put in grease or something. Starting to use too big of words on this forum for me.
Good post Pawnd learned something. -
Thanks for the help pawnd. Down south I've always heard and said alamite. In fact I got me an alamite assortment at the IH tractor dealer last week. I've heard zerk too occasionally but for the longest time I thought they were saying zert.

OK I misspelled it. It's alemite I guess.

Kind of amazing the different words and phrases they have all over the country. Went to WI once and couldn't understand a few words they used there either. They say in Kansas and Midwest we have a accent. I"m pretty sure cowdoc has a good accent being from AR.
I won't know the difference if you spelled it wrong. Doubt if too many others would either. -
Wheathauler I live in Ark. and have for 24 yrs. but I'm from Luzeanna and talk like I'm from Missippi as I grew up 10 miles from Vicksburg. I'll never be FROM Arkansas. Not a Hawg by no means.

No offense taken just clarifying where my regional dialect origins are. I really like this thread.

Well it came up the first way, so not the first, the second is the correct spelling.
Not contesting word or term usage, but there is a difference in an alemite fitting and a zerk. A true alemite fitting is technically a button and pin fitting.
The attached picture is an alemite, to confuse it all the Alemite company bought the original Zerk company and now supplies most of them in an Alemite Co. box.
Some more semi usless information in me head. And doesn't matter what terms are used as long as when you need it the person your getting it from knows what the heck you mean.
Now get on down that macadam and make some jingle.
