I have a new J&M adjustable panhard bar waiting to be installed, and saw on the forums that one side becomes hard to grease once installed, unless a 90-degree fitting is installed.
I went ahead and installed 90-degree fittings at both ends and am wondering if that's gonna be OK or cause any issues with greasability?

Here's what I ended up with:

It's the end on the driver's side that needs it but doesn't hurt having both ends done

You'll be fine. This is the situation with a straight zerk fitting on the driver's side end of the bar.

Yeah it really makes me wonder WTF are the bar manufacturers thinking, not installing 90-degree fittings to begin with ..
