Chassis Lube Points

[kalantar]

Thanks, should we take this to any lube place to do this and what do they generally charge?

They will charge you extra for the skid plate removal, and yes, any place can do it. Use synthetic grease for better life.

There is one zerk that is really hidden, (I think that one may be called the pitman or idler arm pivot), and invisible from underneath, and super hard to see from the engine bay. You can feel it from underneath. It is recessed in some metal.

Mine had a straight zerk, and I could not put a grease gun on it. An hour later, I managed by feel to thread out the old zerk and install a 90 degree zerk, so that I could lube the stupidly designed lube point.

I did all but the Idler Arm pivot (10 total) in my driveway without removing anything with a standard grease gun. As someone mentioned you need to install a 90deg. fitting on it to grease it. Stupid design.
