4X4 Chasis Lubrication
 

Can someone tell me if I am supposed to have more than one grease fitting? I have a 97 4X4.

knt-where is the one fitting you found. cannot find any on my 97 4x4.

My 97 4x4 had 2, and my 00 4x4 has 2.

Farmboy, I have one on my tie rod, where is the other?

Check on top of the idler arm. Thats were my second one is. It is kind of tough to get to but...

KKIRT1 is correct. If you look at the idler arm you will find one at each end. The one toward the engine is on top. I used a grease gun with a flex hose to get at that one. Now doesn't it make you feel bad when a shop tells you oil & filter for $15.95 and a grease job for $4.95 (for two fittings).
