Good luck, Ed

Interesting. The H2 was serviced by the dealership since new up until about 60k miles. I'm not surprised they didn't change it. I haven't had a good dealership experience yet.

Do you remember the thread size for the replacement? I'm guessing 1/4"? Thanks!

Looked in the garage "automotive junk drawer" (I never throw anything away that I think I may need) and did find a straight out zerk that has a tapered 1/4-28 thread. I would say that would be the correct size.

Good luck, Ed

EDIT: Would need H-109-A

The idler arm on the HUMMER H2 has a grease fitting near the top end of the shaft facing the right-hand frame rail. Access to this fitting is very limited and may be accomplished, although not easily, with the use of a 90? grease gun adapter. However, to assure an adequate lubrication at each maintenance interval, it is recommended that the grease fitting be replaced with a 90? style fitting, P/N 09417903, pointing upward.

That's the gm bulletin, not a mandatory replacement but a recommended one. I do believe if my memory serves that it was a customer pay item as well.

Thanks ya'll. I was able to find the TSB. Seems like the GM P/N for the grease fitting is no longer available or the ones that I have found with that P/N are $30 and above. Not paying that price for a grease fitting. I ordered the one Ed posted above.
