i just got my arms tonight and one of the lowers has a broken off grease fitting. i don't wanna send them back over this because i think i can get the fitting at a hardware store for a few cents. will it be alright to run them briefly if i dont get it on there right away? also, where does the grease go? between the arm and the bushing or all the way to center between bushing and the center? thanks!

just buy the fitting and put the fitting in before you run them.

yeah that's the smartest thing to do. i think they have different sizes so i'll take one of the good ones off and bring it to hardware store with me.

Ive got grease fittings on mine but its impossible to grease them due to the way they sit in the car so I never greased them.

no squeaks?

The way this car creaks and rattles its hard to tell.
How am I supposed to grease those fittings anyway? I greased the upper arms but cant seem to get to the fittings on the lowers.

did you try flipping them around so the grease fittings are going the oppisite way?

they're either facing up or down but maybe a right angle grease fitting will fit into the hole. then it might be a little more accessible

They face towards the front of the car. Theres no way to flip anything.

they make a 90* fitting on some greese guns. so you slide the gun end on at a 90* angle to the fitting. just fyi i guess.lol
