Bastards....

I took my truck to some oil pit to get the oil changed....and they tried to con me into getting a lube job for the bushings too. I told the little kid that my truck dont have grease zerks and are unlubable, then he tried to argue with me about it. So I walk out there and show and show him, then he retraces he steps and tells me they poke holes in the bushings and lube them that way....

Long story short, I took my truck somewhere else.

Anyone else ever had a shop try and lube their unlubable bushings?

I've used a needle to poke through the dust boots on some newer vehicles without zerks and inject grease, I grease my ATV's suspension this way also. Below is a picture of the grease gun adapter.

That's uaually because they are covered with old grease & dirt making them difficult to see.

I thought a stock truck had 12? And they are all hard to see get to.
