Apparently Dexter got a bad run of rubber. They are sending me new equalizers, no problem or hassle. Wish lippert had been this easy to deal with. Checked on RV.net and found a few others with the same issue, all got satisfaction from Dexter. I did like the change and could notice an improvement. CrazyCooter, they didn't look squished when we first installed, but they went downhill fast. Glad Dexter is stepping up.
Well, I don't have trouble greasing mine, but that don't help you.
Have you tried getting a 90* elbow for your grease gun? Such as something like THIS.
You should be able to get one at NAPA.
Peace
