Grease points on 1999 dual cab and other service suggestions

Postby maccas5L on Mon, 04 May 2015 2:39 +0000

Gday all,

recently picked up a 1999 dual cab with the 5L 3.0L diesel engine, have carried out a oil/filter/FO filter change, and i have greased the main drive line (all nipples on uni joints), and checked the air filter.
I may have a slight exhaust leak somewhere along the pipe, havnt had a real hard look yet.
Engine, gear box and front and rear diffs have all been overhauled in the last 30,000km.
Shes only done 180,000 km.

Are there any other grease ports i should know about, nothing on the suspension or in the hubs etc?
Also are there any other things i should check for?

Any help is great
Cheers
Brad

G'day brad. There are a couple of small bolts on the upper and lower control arm ball joints that need to be taken out and grease nipple inserted in order to grease the ball joints.

You will need the 90 degree nipples for the lower ball joints.
