    I have one grease fitting that my Milwaukee grease gun cannot get to...... So I bought a cheap grease gun hoping that would work just for that fitting. That didnt work either......

    Is there a such thing as a right angle adapter or something where I can reach a tight spot?

    FYI: Its the fitting on drivers side slack adjuster.....

    I have one. I think it came from Lock & Lube. It works good.

    Another solution would be to change the grease zerk on the slack to a 90 or 45 degree
