This is a remote greasing plate for some harder to reach zerk fitting.
This fitting was on the right side rear drum brake arm and it was tucked under everything and would be easy to miss.
Usually right here there would be two zerk fitting for the transmission and the throughout bearing but this truck had a remote greasing plate by the engine for quick access
Those remote fittings are a nice touch, but I still like to be under the truck to inspect like I demonstrated. My old habits die hard...I have found so much by keeping my eyes open...
