Greasing Rear Suspension w/ Piggyback Clicker Shocks

[MountainFanatic]

OK, so i just went to grease my rear suspension for the first time on the new sled and I'm having an issue. I was able to grease 5 of the 6 points but when it came to the last one (see attachment below) i am unable to get a good enough seal inject the grease with the piggy back clicker nob and cylinder where its at. I've tried 90 degree nozzles and small nozzles on the grease gun to get it to fit, along with compressing and expanding the suspension to for better angles but i can not get it to work. Does anyone have any recommendations or ideas short of taking off the the rear shock?

x2 on this thing. I got one at O'Riley for ~$15.

Works like a charm for that fitting.

How does that one work. I got the 90 degree zerk for under $2.

Yeah just missed your post go big. It had been frustrating me all morning lol.

Went down to buy the 90 degree zero today, but ended up buying the coupler. It worked great!

That coupler would be great for all greasing! I'm getting one for sure!
