| Hey Bush, I got the Super Daves and tried to put 90 degree grease plugs but it wouldn't work. I have to take off the tires to grease. Have you figured anything out different? | |

| Nope. I just greased mine and had to remove the wheels. Had to take them off anyway had a balljoint bolt back off and had to find a new bolt.then when I checked the rear wheels they had a lot of play and I had just changed bearings so I decided to check axle bolts and they was loose. Rotated the tires while they were off. Going to need a new set soon. Anyway I was planning to put 90° fitting in. Why wouldn't they work for you? | |

I have always used a socket and hammer to knock them in. But I got a press back in the summer so will be using it now | |
