Teh Barch is back

Actually I felt guilty. And having dealt with the search Nazis at NAXJA.org, I decided to help out.

Are you kidding me ! Those two inside fittings on the linkage were impossible to get to.

Took out the straight fittings and screwed in two replacement 90 degree ones. What type of engineer designs this ?

Most of use swapped to 90* zerks on the first lube job.

I just use a 90* adapter on my grease gun.

Three minutes are plenty to grab a cold one from the fridge for relaxation.

If it was not for this site I never would have even found the last fitting. The first time I did the lube job I noticed the top ball joint zerk were 90deg and the inner ones were straight I just swapped them out and have only had minor annoyance with the fittings since then. You just have to hold your tongue and the grease gun at the right angle to get that last one on the passengers side.
