One Grease Fitting I Couldn't Get....

Done an oil change and grease job on my truck...but there is one grease fitting I could not get with my grease gun.
It is the fitting on the rear universal of the front drive shaft. I took off the little guard shield and still could not get the nozzle of my grease gun on that little burger....
Ok....I got the regular grease gun with the flex hose......there was not enough room for the nozzle to snap completely on the fitting.
So is there other nozzles on the market out there that are smaller in diameter that gets in this tight space so where this fitting is. It's the 2010 DC V6.
Also the only fittings that I found was five. Is that all of them?
Thanks so much for your alls help

 

Have the same issue with one on mine. If you do enough searching, there's a post where someone suggested a small grease gun without the flex hose. I'm planning on picking one up and giving it a try.

Ok...thanks

 

replace with 90* fitting and or get a gun with one?

 

Harbor Freight-$5.97

Additional Flex hose-$3.97

Bought both of these not too long ago, work great! Only used them 4 times now, so I've only got about 5 more uses out of em to go lol

 

Thanks for the replies gents.........

 

I took the grease fitting on my gun to a bench grinder and shaved a littile of the metal off of two sides, kind of making a taper. Snaps on every time.

 

Good idea using a grinder on the sides of the grease gun. That 2nd zerk is a pain.

 

Needle adapter. I can rotate it to the top and drop in from above with my flex hose w/o the needle adapter but it's a pain.
