Squeaky Chassis

Hi. '95 Ranger 2.3L 4-cyl. 5-speed.

I hear quite a bit of squeaking during highway driving. Is there a lube/oil I can get to quiet it down a bit? It definitely sounds like its coming from the frame around the lower passenger side and also the upper driver side of the cab.

Where do I apply the lube/grease/oil?

I was under the impression that Jiffy Lube/Valvoline/Grease Monkey and the likes greased the chassis as part of the standard service...Guess I was wrong!

Thanks.

If it sounds like it's were the frame and cab meet then I would suspect the cab mounts are bad and nothing but replacing will stop it.

There are no chassis lube points on your Ranger, no grease zirks, nothing like that. So in fact, all the Quick Lube places can do is change your fluids.
