Spot on Lynn . Threads are cleaned out , found one at my local shop, good price $8.40 . Four wheels primed today took longer then I thought , lots of hard to get to places . Ready for bearings and the green paint by the end of the week .. Dale

The two threaded holes for the grease nipples on the center hub , one has a small hole at the end of the thread , the other has a bigger hole , which one is for the nipple and which one for the pressure value as I did not take notice when I pull them out . Dale

Dale, the grease nipple is on the outside of the wheel. The breather valve is on the inside. A tiny bit of grease on the ball part of the grease nipple before you paint it, and you can easily wipe it clean after. The grease nipple sits a an easy access angle. in the hub, I didn't know the holes were different so cant help.

Hi Lynn the threads for the breather and nipple are on the outside of the hub one spoke apart , but when you look inside the hub , with bearing out , one un threaded hole is about 4mm the other about 8mm just wondering if the bigger one is for the grease and the smaller for air .. Dale
