Is there a easier way to get the grease fitting on the back prop shaft of a 2000 sportsman 335? The pull start housing is in the way.I cant find a smaller fitting to go on my grease gun. a needle one bends.

 

You are right that is a tough grease zerk to get too. I use a flexable hose with a ninty degree bend attachment. It takes a little effort but works just fine. You can get the attachment at PepBoys or Auto Zone.

 

Yes it's a pain in the "you know what"! I use a flexible hose on an air-operated grease gun. With an air gun one hand is free to hold/manoeuvre the grease hose while the other hand operates the trigger. This makes it a little easier.
