MAINTENANCE

Lubrication Guide

Check and lubricate all components at the intervals outlined in the 
Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page 74. Items not 
listed in the chart should be lubricated at the General Lubrication 
interval.

NOTE:

The a-arms and lower control arms are lubricated at the factory, and 

no additional lubrication will be needed. However, if these components 

are subjected to severe use, grease zerks have been provided for 

additional lubrication at the user's discretion.
