Lincoln 5859 90 degree grease adapter

Anyone use these? How do they work? Worth getting (need for some tight spots)?

I have the OTC version of it. Basically the same but smaller, you have to apply pressure while holding on to everything. Its a three handed job.

The Amazon reviews for say it doesn't fit zerks.

I purchased a version of that right angle adapter and had a really tough time getting it to work. I ended up getting a slotted style right angle model that worked much better for me. Like the Lincoln 5883.

Thanks for the advice guys. I'll try the slotted type.

I have one of these, used it a handful of times when I owned the F250. It worked, maybe not perfectly, but it worked.

Well, I ended up getting two slotted types thinking I may have some problems (the Lincoln slotted version was out of stock, so I didn't get it).

1. A Performance Tool cheapo from Advanced Auto. This was useless. Didn't work. Would not snap into position.

2. Thexton Part 418. This one was great and worked like a charm.
