Control arm needs grease.

I need to grease the control arms (I think that is what they are called) in my mav, the front end is squeaking worse than ever and I can't ignore it anymore, I really don't want to drill holes. Is there any other option?

www.autokrafters.com has a 90 deg grease fitting. I'd contact them for help (I couldn't find the particular fitting on-line).

Good Luck,

Just put the 90degree kit in my car last weekend. Worked great. The control arms have plugs in them. They are small, can't remember which wrench I used, and are fairly easy to get to. You should remove the wheels. Getting the fittings in is fairly easy, if you use the tool in the kit. Stopped the squeaks immediately. I used a good lithium grease, high pressure and temp. Good luck!

the old school way

drill holes in the shock towers. I also have the 90 deg fittings.

 

Thanks.

Thanks, I will call AK on monday and order them.
