Hi Rob, I had forgotten about the clutch shaft ones, but will point out that those, like the thrust bearing one, are not going to be BSF, are they?
I would expect they are standard type grease nipples with what ever thread Henry Ford put in his gear box housings (NPT?)
Truth is, I have never had an original carrier g/box housing, so don't know this?

It would have made sense to have the whole vehicle greased with the same grease gun. The only options were to fit NPT threaded Tecalamites there, or a grease gun adapter.

Answers please (Waiting for Michael R to chime in with documentary evidence)

I don't have a flare pistol bkt and had forgotten about that one.
