I dont know about that . . . I have rebuild kits headed my way. None of my zerk fittings would take grease: steering, discos, suspension. They are all rusted shut.

I tried to shove some grease in the zerk fittings, and only 2 took grease . . . the front lowers. I just tried to flex it on a retaining wall, not mine but a buddies, and I just lifted the rear tires. I'm giving up on the suspention as it sits right now. I will keep everyone updated when I rebuild the control arms and put new track bars on. Hopefully that fixes the problem.
