    I was not aware that there are different sizes of zerks. All 5 of mine on the driveshafts are the same size.

    Are you replacing the grease zerks on the truck or are you having issues getting the gun to fit on the zerk? If the problem is the latter every grease gun I have used could be adjusted (bigger or smaller) by turning the grease fitting on the end of the grease gun.
