Not really.... and when you thread the zerk in, you come VERY close to
closing off the through hole in the trunnion pin so that grease wont go
through the pin to the blind side then out to to machined grooves in the
pin thereby lubricating the threads.
The rebuilt a-frames that have been modified by adding a threaded
bushing at the small end and also drilled and tapped for a zerk are better
able to accommodate the extra depth for the zerk.
