Skid steer style release pins.

Are these know to cause a lot of problems. My pins are very difficult to release every time I need to change out the bucket for the forks. Are there any ways to maybe tap them for a grease fitting? I keep them oiled but within a month they are normally moved by a hammer to the bottom to release them.

My FEL has zerks for that purpose.

My Bobcat has grease zerks for it.

My bobcat has grease zerks on the pins. Mine still was stiff. So i removed the pin and ground a slight groove in the pin to align with the grease zerk. That alowed the grease to get around the pin and really helped my issue.

Can someone post a pic of there set with zerks shown . Thanks.
I looked yesterday but all I could set was a a roll pin installed as a guide on each side.
