Hey guys, I am installing Al's A-Arms and am having trouble getting grease into the zerk fitting. I just bought a grease gun. Is there a special tip I need to use. Every time I try to put grease in it just goes all around the fitting, I don't think any is going in. Thanx in Advance |

Sounds like the tip of the grease gun is not "locking" onto the zerk. I had the same problem before I got a better grease gun. |

What Warblade said. The grease gun connector should snap into the zerk fitting on the ball joint. Some guns come with a different sized connector that will be too big. I forget the size you need, but if it's not snapping into the zerk, it's probably the wrong size. |

Sometimes the ball at the end of the zerk can also be stuck. pushing it in with the tip of a punch can free it up. |
