Suspension: Service and Repair

STANDARD PROCEDURE - LUBRICATION

There are no serviceable lubrication points on the front suspension. The ball joints are sealed-for-life and require no maintenance. The lower ball joints have special grease fitting caps that prevent normal grease gun attachment. This has been done to eliminate the possibility of over-filling, damaging the non-vented seal. Do not attempt to remove the special grease fitting cap and replace it with a normal grease zerk fitting.

CAUTION: No attempt should be made to replace the ball joint grease fitting cap with a normal zerk fitting or fill the ball joint with grease. Damage to the grease seal can result.
