Lubrication Guide
Check and lubricate all components at the intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart. Items not listed in the chart should be lubricated at the General Lubrication interval.
The a-arms and upper 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.
