    I remember working to find an orientation for the fitting as well. I dont think the OOTB location worked. I get to discover again with the 35 Truck...

    Yes, drill a new hole in the steel collar. Put a grease fitting in the new hole. Plug the old one.

    Mine are near the rack at full droop, but when you put the car on the ground the zerks rotate down away from the rack.

    It's all fixed now, plugged the old one and put a new one in a different location.
