Magic Tilt trailer grease fittings

[harryp]

I have a 2003 TR23-5200 Magic Tilt dual wheel boat trailer with surge/hydraulic drum brakes on one set of wheels. Grease fittings on rear of wheel assembly (not the wheel bearings) are frozen. I assume these lubricate the brake assembly. I can't find any info online nor can I find a grease fitting in Magic Tilt's downloaded parts list. Can anyone tell me what type, thread size, etc. these fittings are?
Thanks!

What ^^^^^ said. Are you sure you are not looking at the bleed screws for the brake system?

Above +1
Magic tilt has a great customer service person. Call them.
If it ain't broke, don't screw with it.
I don't know where you are, but in Florida as wellas many other states, brakes are required (by state law)on both axles of a two axle trailer.

There are no grease fittings on a wheel cylinder. Those definitely are the brake bleeder screws. A grease gun would not fit on them and since they act as a valve (closed) you wouldn't be able to pump grease into them anyway.
