Lube/Zirk
Lube/Zirk
I've been doing all the maintenance on my truck since I bought it and am on my second oil change. I realized I haven't seen any zirk's anywhere underneath and haven't lubed anything. Are there any lube spots or zirk's I need to be looking for? Sorry, I know this is a REALLY "newby" question, but I enjoy doing the work myself.
The outer tie-rod ends need to be greased. That is pretty much it.
There is supposedly a place on the front U-joint but you have to have a needle grease fitting. I am just waiting till the right time and im going to replace all my U-Joints with greasable ones.

Thanks for the info. The tie rod ends were easy enough, I did notice the grease overflow out of the top of the bushing. Does this seem normal? I went to Napa and purchased the recommended grease fitting for the front drive shaft. After several attempts, grease everywhere, and a couple of new obscene names for the engineering crew at Dodge, I ?think? I got the u-joint lubed. It was hard to tell if the grease was actually going where it should be going. I wonder how often or if this ever gets done when you take your truck to the dealer for an LOF?
