when my dad has the oil changed on the truck he brings it to a garage that changes oil but they also grease stuff under the truck what do they grease and what do they use thanx

 

They lube the grease fittings with a "grease gun". Most modern cars have factory sealed fittings that don't require lube.....

 

Alot of times too they will lube/spray the bushing on the sway bars and control arms along with the body isolators.

They may also be lubing the universal joints on the driveshaft.

 

aite thanx guys

 

Yeah that's it! I couldn't get the words outta my head to say it.. I knew they lubed the grease fittings...I should remember because I change my own oil...I love the feeling of oil running down my arm..especially when it's room tempurature[sm=smiley36.gif][sm=smiley36.gif]

It feels real good when you drain the oil immediately after an hour or two on the road.

 

You drain your oil when its room temp?

 

When I change it, it's usally slightly warm..seems to drain out quicker and better I thought..but I must say it does feel good running down my arm [sm=smiley36.gif][sm=smiley36.gif]

Yeah, you want it warm, it gets more of the the old/bad oil out, along with the dirt/shavings....
