grease fitting
Who the hell designs these things.
Was greasing my 13 RS what a nightmare.
At least the engineer could have put 45 degree fittings on there
Arthritis in my hands didn't help. That is where they need a tech engineer someone who works with their hands and not brain

They don't think about the consumer. They think about how qucikly parts can be installed on a frame, and how many spyders/hour can be built.

It was designed by the same engineer that designed the location of the rear wheel valve stem.

Why are there grease fittings? I haven't had an auto with a grease fitting on it in decades.

The adapter is about 3 in. long and 3/8 dia. You just push it on to the fitting from the side, This thing is great for greasing other
things that have grease fitting, lawn mowers, u-joints and any other miserable fitting locations.
