A lot depends on if you have factory sealed parts. Those don't have zerk fittings. At the age of the truck though, you probably have replacement parts. There will be fitting on the universal joints on both driveshafts. Upper and lower ball joints or knuckles. Your tie rod ends, center link and idle arm may also have them. Other than that, look around for build up grease. It collects dirt and makes a thick sludge that builds up. Scrape the build up away and you may find more fittings. Be thankful your truck isn't from the 50's. Those had fittings everywhere. They even had fittings on the springs.

I know I’m probably late as heck to this, but figured I’d share anyway in case you or someone else needs it.
