JJ question

Caught the Bug
So I'm working on readjusting the control arms on the Jeep and it looks like they were neglected. On some I'm unable to push grease through the zerk. Any fix to this or do I need to replace them?

Pull them apart, grease and put them back together. Could be dried grease plugging the hole.

Sometimes the zerks get cranked down too tight to allow the grease to push past. Try loosing them a quarter turn and see if that helps. Otherwise, it’s what overlander said.

Thanks for the input. I've pulled the zerks out and tried to grease it but it just shoots back. Looks like some cleaning is in order I guess.

there's not a lot of room for grease in the JJ, i'd do what has been mentioned, take them apart, clean out the dried grease and smear new grease on them.

They don't cost that much you can go to napa and get a box of them and have some spares
