Chasis Lube

[myZ71]

I need some help on finding the fittings to lube my Z71 chasis.  Can anyone give me some advise on how many fittings there are and where they are located?  I have a '99 Z71 ext. cab (old body style).  

Thanks,

Dale

Awesome!!  What type of grease should I use and how much do I put in it?  I know these are stupid questions, I'm just new to doing the maintanence myself (other than oil).

Schaeffers #238 grease.  #2 grade.  This is a moly type grease and is excellent for high loads.

I use mobil 1 synthetic grease.

Can I get those greases at any Auto store?

[RyanbabZ71]

yep they come in a tube.  They are fairly nexpensive also and will last a long time.  Also i add about 2-3 pumps to each every other oil change

Thanks for the help.  Is there anything else you do other than grease and oil?  Want to make sure I don't skip something important and then tear up my truck.
