anyone have luck installing some 45 degree grease fittings on the rear suspension? 90s wouldn't clear the a arms, I didn't have any 45s around. there is 4 of them. cant get to them with my needle adapter even. changing oils on engine, rear end and front diff is a breeze, they did good there, but access to the grease fittings sucks. the front drive shaft u joint closest to the engine also is not any fun to get to. other than that its a pretty solid design.

When you changed the engine oil, did you get any on the skid plate?

Maybe a little. The holes are in a pretty good spot.

Good catch I was just looking at mine. Looks like 45's will be needed

Sounds like you need a different grease gun tip. I haven't even looked at the fittings on my Wolverine yet, but I use one of these for the hard to reach areas. It's not perfect but does the job.
