Just a quick question... I have changed the oil a good 5 times on the truck since I bought it a couple years ago. My question is... are there any zerks that need to be greased on the front end of my truck. 05 4x4 SLT QCSB. My 96 blazer had quite a few that needed to be done and my dad's 05 yukon has them. I didnt see any on mine, but I fiqured I would ask as I am coming up on another oil change withing the next couple of months.

 

ill 2nd that question

 

i bealive their are 7 but i could be wrong . i know my 2500 has 7 cant rember the 1500 thow. just crawl under and look . should have one on the drive shaft linkage and the stearing ect

 

None, everything is factory sealed.. As you break stuff replace it with aftermarket parts that are greasable such as ujoints and balljoints..

 

I was wondering about this as well..

It says to grease the front drive shaft after every oil change. I cannot find one damn grease fitting on any driveshaft on my truck..

 

yah I saw in my book where it tells you about oil changes it says to grease driveshafts and suspension and in ()'s it says 2500/3500..

Its ridiculous that they do this, wheel bearing, ball joints, ujoints, driveshafts.. everything is sealed.. Its been like that for years, **** I remember working on a honda at the shop I worked for last year and to replace the balljoint in the lower control arm you have to replace the WHOLE arm.. They dont just sell a ball joint!

 

Everything basically went to "sealed, maintenance-fee" with the 3rd Gens. In other words - get out your checkbook and kiss up to Chrysler...

 

yep, what all can we replace aftermarket with greeseable stuff, Im going to start replacing things as they break/I get money:

-Balljoints
-U joints
-Tie rod ends
