Ball Joints not letting me grease them? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I went out to grease up my '88 LongBox Pickup yesterday. I think I was trying to grease the ball joints on it. I am not used to the whole IFS thing but they were in the same place that my ball joints on my Blazer are at.
Anyways I cleand up the nipple on them and got my grease gun on it, but there was alot of resistance so I figured I would just squeeze it really hard and it would work. But instead grese came squirting out of the rear end of the grease gun.
Anybody had this happen before or have any suggestions on it.
Thanx for any advice!
