Greasing a Deuce

I'm using a Legacy Workforce lever grease gun. I bought it for about $40 from Tractor Supply and I hate it! It won't use the grease cartridges because the rubber push seal is too wide to fit down the grease tube. I'm going to call the manufacturer to see if they can help me out. I checked Amazon and people are having the same problem with $25 manual grease guns. So I'm having a $25 problem on a $40 grease gun :rolleyes:

Buy a battery powered gun. You can pick up a dewalt for around $100 to $150. Bleeds air very easy as well

You may also wish to consider what type of grease goes where. I suggest you use lithium type grease with bearings such as u-joints. I use black moly grease in sliding joints such as spring shackles , tie rod ends, and the like. Just my two cents worth.
