Reach out-of-the-way zerk fittings such as those on ball joints. Coupler fits standard grease guns. Poly seal fits snugly to zerk fitting.
1-5/8'' long, 1/8'' NPT

I think you would be better off replacing the straight zerk fitting with a 90 degree one.
I haven't had much luck using the adapter above. It seems to spew grease everywhere except into the fitting.
Maybe I have a cheap one. I actually I have 3 like that and none work.
Could be operator error too
Maybe this one would work but it's $60

Yep, you need a low profile zerk. I had some on the shelf but can't tell ya where they came from 
.
You might get lucky and find them at a tractor supply store. You don't need much to clear the u-joint.
Mine looks very close but after many years I haven't see one get knocked
off. I see how it Could happen if I did a lot of off-road, mud playing.
Before I found the 90 fitting I have I would just remove the flat plug and install a 90,
grease and re-install the plug. It only took a couple more minutes per side.

The above fitting grease attachment requites you to replace the Zerk with a different style of grease fitting as well. They do look kind of cool. I wonder if they get plugged as often as the normal Zerk?
