Greasen' her up

Just saw a thread on the first gen page that reminded me. How many grease fittings are there on the 2nd gens, how often should they be greased, and are there any seals that can be blown or anything by using too much grease? Thought I read something like that somewhere. Guess most of the fittings are on the front suspension, where else?

Anxious to try out my new air powered grease gun. On my new-to-me 6hp/60 gallon air compressor!

It all depends on the year. My 2002 has 3 fittings, and i think my 1995 3500 has 7. Just put enough grease to see the boots puff up slightly.
