Check and lubricate all components at the intervals outlined in the Peri-

The a-arms and upper control arms are lubricated at the factory, and no
additional lubrication will be needed. However, if these components are
subjected to severe use, grease zerks have been provided for additional
lubrication at the user's discretion.
