For those of you with second gen X's with greaseable lower ball joints, how they hell are you greasing them?!?!!?

I can't get an grease coupler to fit, everything is in the way of the the damn things. :mad: I've tried a 90 degree flat coupler, and it does not seal enough and no grease goes into the fitting. I know have a 90 degree angle, and it's about 1 inch tall and it won't fit because it's too big! ARGGGGGGG :mad:

I tried switching the fitting themselves, but they are a funny thread size and nobody makes 90 degree fittings for this thread size. :rolleyes:

So, if your X has greaseable lower ball joints, how are you greasing them? I'm about to lose my friggin mind over this. :(
