MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Lubrication Recommendations
Check and lubricate all components at the intervals outlined in the
Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page 60. 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.
