What gun or fitting to get grease into u joint?

i have the same problem as OP. it's not getting around stuff to reach the zerk, rather the zerk is bunkered behind a flange on the driveline. the shit just doesn't fit in there. grinding the flange that keeps the hose from fitting on the zerk may be a good idea.

 

I have a DeWalt grease gun & if someone wants to come by I'll let you borrow it so long as you do mine while you're at it. I'll even supply the grease!

 

I got my grease gun from lowes. Its an STP.

I use Super lube that i got off of Amazon.

 

I get side tracked every time I see that chick, but I use a Lincoln brand gun I bought at rural king. It has a flexible hose as well. Still hard to get to them.

 

Yes sir 1/8" Pipe thread is standard size for most all grease tips

 

i use this one... works perfectly

Flexible hose on the grease gun and a few choice words gets it done. I attack from the drivers side, the zerk pointing straight out towards the side of the truck.

That's what she said.

 

I had my u joints replaced and two of them I can't access without removing the zerk fittings and using a needle tip on the grease gun. A PITA
