Quick Question

I am doing my 7500 mile maintenance right now...everything so far is just a breeze. I find that simply unbolting the intake and doing the oil filter from the top would be much easier than going in from the bottom...I slid a big ziplock bag over it and it dropped right in, simple, easy and best of all CLEAN. Oil is still draining...I lubed the tie rod ends...now here is the question...the front driveshaft fitting...I SEE it, but there is no way that I can get to it with a common zerk fitting grease gun...what do ya'll do? Thanks.

Derek
