To the OP
Have the wet bolts ever taken grease?
If not then you need to remove them and find out what is wrong. When I did my wet bolts I found several bolts had not been properly drilled. Lippert replaced the bolts.

Change out the grease zerk, and drill out the bolt
one grease gun is as good as another, most all will do 10K psi

They have never taken grease. My plan has been to remove bolts as a last resort after trying several other solutions first. I will have to buy heavier jack stands if I go that route.
To those giving suggestions on grease guns, thanks.

I am almost sure you will find the bolts were not drilled correctly. If you do a search on wet bolts you will find the bolts that were not drilled properly is a common problem particularly with the Lippert bolts although I believe there are others as I suspect all of the bolts come from China.
