Where can I get an adapter for my standard grease gun for the button head grease fittings on my 420?

I got mine from Lavoy. Added a pistol grip gun and some corn header grease and we were off and away.

Steering clutches, for even less.

If you happen to have a good old fashion hardware store around, you may get lucky and find one. I found two at an old hardware store, probably were hanging there for thirty years based on the amount of dust on them (price was not pretty good too).

If not, I believe Lavoy has them.

I BOUGHT one at Yellowhouse. That's the name of my local JD Industrial dealer. The green tractor people did not want to talk about a 440ICD. LOL

eBay normally has a few listed and McMaster-Carr has them.

If if ain't broke, don't try to fix it!

I got the same thing from grainger.com and then I removed the adapter part and permanently put it on a grease gun.

This post got me looking and I'm sorry to say that there was a new one on eBay with the 1/8" NPT for $12 and free shipping so I snagged it. They sell for $32 - $35 on McMaster and Grainger so I couldn't help myself because I didn't have one yet. Sorry. :oops:
