02 Expy Chassis Lube Question...
Hi folks!
I have an 02 Expy and I was trying to find the grease nipples on the chassis this afternoon. I found one?!?! That was the power steering linkage. I didn't see/feel any on the tie rods or other normal places you would expect. No plugs either that I could feel. Am I not looking hard enough?
Any help is appreciated.

It's been my experience that most factory ball joints universals and steering linkages are non-greasable. Much like sealed bearings the idea is that the lubrication built with the component should last its service life...ya right. So most times, grease nipples are on replaced parts.
