Anybody got any ideas on how to get to the zerk at the upper end of the passenger side idler arm mount? Mines blocked by 2 metal A/C lines? Got a flex hose but still can't get to her :confused:

I changed 4 or 5 of those up in there that were tough to get to.
With 90's and it shore made life a lot easier.Hope that will help.

I believe they are 1/8 inch. I think they are the smallest you can. Best bet is take one out and take it with you then you can get the right size. When I bought mine there came in package of 11 I beleive.
Good luck.

Happy Christmas Eve to everybody. Question, can anybody show or tell me where are all the grease fittings on the front end of a 2002 GMC 3500? I would like to know when I grease it. Thanx. Also, how do you separate your message and add the lines of what add on's everybody has on their trucks. Thanx again.

Commuter cop, the zerks 5mm or maybe 6mm, I can`t remember for sure, it`s been a while. Most good auto parts stores have them.

ZL 1 When you first log in near the top of the screen there is a little link that says "my profile" click on that and go down to where it says signature. Type in your mods, and they will appear after each of your posts. Dont forget to click update profile after you complete your signature. Hope this helps.

I put the "90" at the other end. I took the tip off the flex hose and added a 90 deg. street ell. Now it fits almost anywhare.
