Grease

Has anyone located any zerks other than the 2 on the front axle U joints?
That's all I can find.

Thanks

But they are on each end of the front axle, in the U joint right at the hub. (in the hub).

My last truck was an 2006 6.0 and it had the same (2) grease fittings. At 36,000 miles, I took a grease needle to all of the joints that didn't have a fitting. I traded it on 8/25/11 with 110k miles and everything was still tight.
