What do you use to get in there to grease the steeing head bearing with. I cant seem to find anything that will work. I bought a coupler that slides over grease zerk from the side but when i pump grease it just goes everywhere instead of in the bearings.

Change out the fitting to  a 45 degree fitting, turn to a full right, change out fitting them sneak up there and bingo>>>, fittings are a buck or two , never had any luck with the adapters..

Cant get the 45 degree fitting in there. Not much room with my big hands & very little working room in there. Going to have to let dealer pump the grease in there for me. Any other suggestions.

My hand grease gun has a flexible hose on it and with the wheels cut all the way to one side, I can wedge the nipple onto the straight grease fitting and grease the neck bearings.  Don't be surprised if you use 1/2 a tube to fill the neck.  The upper and lower bearings oozed grease at the same time.

Finally got it in there and is greased up now... Thanx for all the help..

I applied 90 degree fitting. It comes in 2 pieces. Took apart and applied.
