Dents? Are they threaded for nipples or just indentations in the forgings? The last couple of sets of universals I have fit to Xena have been pre-packed, no grease nipples at all!

Most auto parts stores in the States carry them, but an industrial supplier will have a larger selection. They are threaded or pushed in, they're called Zerc Fittings.
