What do you guys use to grease your driveshaft's and places a standard grease gun fitting wont fit? Id like to hear some tips.

I have no places my greasegun doesn't fit. You may need a different tip on your grease gun.
Or reaim or change the angle of your Zerks.

Mine are all accessible; however can be used in tight spots:

Gary, isn't that Plews thing for a needle fitting, as used on things like the double Cardan joint on a heavy truck 4x4 front driveshaft? I know the current generation Ram 2500 4x4 trucks require that needle for the front axle shaft lube. I don't think it works on a zerk fitting.

There's a low-profile zerk grease gun fitting made for Chrysler K-cars that will get into tight spaces. It slides over the zerk fitting from the side, instead of on the end of the zerk like a standard grease gun fitting.

The needle end will also squirt lube into a standard zerk. We used them at Valvoline Instant Oil Change during my 4 years tenure there. The other pictured zerk fitting was created primarily for Chryslers in the early '90s that had zerks on the bottom ball joints-impossible to lube w/o that tool.

Yeah I have a hard time getting it to fit on my driveshaft joints.

I have a mix of straight, 45° & 90° Zerk fittings strategically aimed for greasing.
