    Greasing Hydraulic JP W/Power Poles

    Just put on a Bob's 8" Hydraulic JP and cannot figure out how to fit anything in between the PP and grease fitting. Can't find any adapters that will fit over the grease zerk longer angled grease zerks. How do I do this, and where can I get longer grease zerks?

    Thanks

    I have the same dilemma. I manually grease the tracks in the full up and full down position because I can't get at the zerks.

    I use a grease gun with a needle and said screw the grease fittings.

    It must be the PP mounts, I think there may be some different ones available. I have a Bobs and PP's, I don't have any problem!

    Here you go.

    It threads onto the small grease gun.

    It's still tight but since it's a solid tube you can push against the PP brackets and force it onto the Zerk.
