My van is making some clicking noises when we turn left or right... the boots appear to be in good shape. Can the front end be lubricated on this model?
Thanks!

On my 2002 GC I removed the plugs for the ball joints and put in angled, for easier accessibility, grease fittings. That gives me two locations and that's it.
As to sounds:
A clunking noise, even when going over small bumps - front sway bar bushings (metal bracket loose because of worn bushingand hitting metal chasis)or links- most likely the right front way bar bushing.
A clicking sound when making turns - constant velocity joints or strut bearings possibly.

Thanks for the note,
where are the ball joints located on your 2002 model?
as for the site you suggested, that is too cool.
Looks like I need to check out the CV half shaft!

 

A Haynes Manual, at less than $30.00, is great reference tool if you intend to do a lot of work yourself or if you want to learn more about your vehicle.
Lower Ball Joints -location: Very near the front wheels, less than a couple of inches from the rotors and pretty well the lowest, to the ground, component there. Rotation is allowed within the ball joints as you steer your wheels.This is a typical location for all vehicles that have ball joints.
