Wet Bolt Lubrication Problem

Took our coach to the local GoodYear truck tire dealership to get the tires balanced and the suspension lubed. They were only able to get grease into two of the six fittings on one side, three on the other. So, question - has anyone else had this problem and what was your fix?

The coach supposedly was greased at our dealership when we did our PDI (there were traces of new grease on all zerk) and then again last January after we had driven back in the snow and ice of winter.

Did you try putting down your 6 point leveler system stand, taking the pressure off of the suspension. The wet bolts need to be installed in a certain order to allow the grease to flow correctly under pressure from the weight of the coach, might not have been installed correctly, taking the pressure off should allow the grease to flow

Agreed.
