But, only the newer Olivers have  the "Jack Point" decals!

Good point.

I was writing for John Welte, who I know has a 2022 Elite II, because his is one Hull # before mine!

LockNLube has three right angle adapters. The more expensive one at $16.99 is the one that was linked earlier in this thread. The one I'm considering is this "simple" one at $10.99. The former one is shorter at 0.8" while the latter is 2.15". Anyone have experience with it, or with both?

The third one is the push-on adapter that looks like it will not work for the upper zerks.

I used the $16.99 one that has a screw on piece and external spring.  There are three pieces that are inside the housing.  Don't make the mistake that I did and unscrew the piece fully.  I lost those three little pieces and had to reorder the piece.  I have to finish the job still now that the replacement adapter came.  They should warn people to not unscrew that, or maybe everyone except me just knew not to.  I don't have experience with the cheaper adapter that you reference.  Good luck.

We've been using the straight one that we bought from LockNLube, it hits all 16 zerks with ease and doesn't pop-off.  Works as a great combo with the Lincoln grease gun:

Did you have to remove the wheels?

NOPE, I crawl under the trailer (and destroy a T-shirt) and hit the zerks from underneath.

You could aways use a crawler to lay on (and save the T-Shirt) , but you would want to park on pavement.

With me on my Creepy Crawler - even on concrete - I can't manage to get my girth under the axles to reach the two center top zerks!  Besides - I've got plenty of T's!   HA!

I do have to remove the wheels which is why I will use a right angle adapter instead. If anyone has a preference, please tell me as I would rather not have to buy both.

This makes me laugh. We have lots of t-shirts too. 

We have a big shelf of new ones.

I sort used  t-shirts at laundry time  by work only, (folded really small), car wash rags (go to a bag), and "dressier" tee shirts, which  get only a  half fold. 

Work only shirts, pants, and socks go in one drawer. "Good" stuff, other drawers .
