Subject: grease zerks
IP: Logged

Message:
I was going to lube the chassis on my 2000 Dakota Club cab 3.9L but when I crawled underneath, there were no grease zerks. An after market manual I bought says that if there are no zerks, to install some. Is there a plug or something where these would install? If so, is it obvious? I'm no master mechanic, but just looking, I couldn't figure out where they'd go even if I had them. Any advice appreciated.

You can use a needle attachment to your grease gun and slip it under/puncture the rubber boot. If you wait too long to do this, then you will end up replacing them!

all it does is grease the boot non of it gets in between the ball and socket where it is needed.
