I highly recommed the drive fittings. Go on flea bay and find them. Do not come in a kit so you need to order as per size. They look as if they have threads till you look real close; they are like a barb hose fitting but little. The sizes I have are 3/16 -1/4- 5/16 and 3/8. Very easy to work with. CAREFULLY drill a STRAIGHT TIGHT hole in the size you are going to use. Blow out any trash and steel your nerves. Set it straight in the hole and give a little tap. Look it over and make sure it is still straight. Tap again a little harder and check again. If you did it corectly the next time you should be able to go WHAM. That drive should seat it down to the stop collar ring. You must hit them square!!!!!!! If you did everything to the letter they will not come out. I needed to get one out and had to used vice grips. ONLY use them on solid areas. Loader arms ,axle heads, loader pins Etc. Thin stuff still needs regular screw in zerks. I have a box of regular fittings from harbor freight and have expanded it to include these drive fittings and larger special fitings for like old hit and miss engines. Also store the number drill and tap sets for like 1/4 28 fittings etc. Flea bay listings.

1/4 161366231608
5/16 121420570029
3/8 110575753803
That should get you started. My international 300 has the little ones on the fast hitch arms. They still work almost 60 years latter.
