My boat and trailer are about a year old. I greased the bearing buddies about 6 months ago with no issues. I pulled the caps this weekend and couldn't get any grease through the fittings. Anyone else experienced this? Any help would be appreciated!

Ordered a high pressure fitting for my grease gun. It locked on the end and pushed grease in with no issues. Hope this helps if anyone else has this issue.

Sometimes the zirk fitting on the bearing buddy either stays open or won’t open. Cleaning out the opening with a pin, needle, etc usually resolves the issue.
