Smile Lube Points

1998 F150 XLT
100,000 Miles
4X4
4.6 Triton

Had a miss and you all recommended replacing plugs and wires .....I did and it runs great.

Next project is a good lube job.....can anybody tell me where all the grease fittings are......its cold here in pennsylvania and my garage is not heated.....will safe me the time in searching for them all.

Suspension has a little sqeaking in it when leaving my gravel drive.....what could I do to make it a little less noisy?

Mechanical Skills are limited but with good instruction, can do any thing!!

Thanks

Bob

Thanks

There should not be any grease fittings on the truck.

You may want to check again. Check the lower balljoints, and the steering linkages under the engine. Both those places are greasable on my truck. It may be different since mine is a F-250 LD, not sure.
