Default Grease

My girlfriends uncle and I were working on his car (91 Caddy) and he said don't forget to always grease your front end.

Do we still have to grease our front ends?

Nothing to grease. Everything is sealed.

He probably means bushings in the suspension. If you get a/m control arms or something, you have to grease the bushings.

Unless you get the Maximum Motorsports control arms, I'm pretty sure it said something on their site where you don't need to grease theirs. But they also cost a TON of money compared to something Granatelli.

just look around and grease anything that has a fitting. Usually if it has a fitting it may have been replaced at some point. I always just look around and find out what can be greased and grease it. I have two new moog tie rod ends and grease those.
