Question 4X4 Chasis Lubrication

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

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).
