Message:
I had a quick look under the engine compartment around the steering components and didn't see any grease nipples. What, if anything should I be greasing? I know the ball joints are sealed so what else is under there?

inner & outer end links, pitman, idler arm, if equipped, drive shaft u-joint, and front diff drve shaft if equipped. Spray silicone lube on sway bar bushings if they are not fitted with zerks, also spray cab bushings, door hinges, hood hinges and latch assembly, and service the tailgate. Are you certain your ball joints are sealed? Wipe each one down good witha shop towel and feel for the grease zerk

I've looked everywhere under my '02 QC AWD. Not a single zerk fitting under there anywhere. Welcome to the world of disposable trucks. Damn Japanese crap!!!!!
