Question Zerk fitting access

Anybody else have a hard time getting their grease gun on the 2 inside lower control arm fittings? Even though mine has a 90 degree flex hose fitting on it, I still can't quite fit it on there. The others were all relatively easy to access once I removed the front wheels. I started getting an odd groan or internal rubbing sound when turning my wheels while stationary especially in reverse, hope my kingpins aren't shot! Strangely enough this seemed to happen only AFTER I greased them, perhaps I used the wrong grease? I've also noticed some noise over bumps. I'm strongly suspecting the grease and will try re-packing with mobil 1 soon.
