greasing swaybar bushings(help)
i have the hotchkis sways and man this cold weather makes them squeeak like crazy!!!!!
the rear doesnt give me any trouble its the front that sqeaks on any little dip.
how do u guys grease these things?
i had trouble getting my grease gun to fit in that super tight place...so then i got a 90degree grease fitting and even then it doesnt seem to work all the grease just comes out the top..........any tips??? i dont want to drop the subframe to take them off and grease them but it might just come down to that....

You should NOT have to remove the whole bushing to grease the Hotchkis set. They come with grease fittings on the brackets that will grease them if you can get the fitting attached. You really just have to keep at it and try to get it in there.
