Installed Currie rear adjustable trac bar. Hooked grease gun up to zerk amd it didnt seem to want to take grease. Would juat squeeze out nozzle fitting. Any suggestions?
 
Will be installing 8 savvy arms this weekend and suspecr I will encounter similar issues. Would like to have a solution before then. Thanks in advance.
 
Johnny Joints have very tight tolerances inside and they don't accept grease easily. If they're new run 'em as is. The best way to grease them is to disassemble them and grease them by hand with a red moly grease like from Redline. The issue is you really need Currie's special tool to do that. Fortunately they don't require greasing very often.
