Grease zerks from the factory:
2wd will have 0
4wds will have 6
- 1 on each front driveshaft u-joint (2 Total)
- 1 on the front driveshaft slip joint
- 1 on each rear driveshaft u-joint (2 Total)
- 1 on the rear driveshaft slip joint
Optionally
- Aftermarket LBJs and UBJs may have grease zerks
- Aftermarket front Sway bar bushings may have grease zerks
- Aftermarket outer tire rod ends may have grease zerks
- LCAs or UCAs with polyurethane bushings may have grease zerks, or could be drilled and tapped for zerks
- Rear trailing arms with polyurethane bushings may have grease zerks, or could be drilled and tapped for zerks
- Rear Panhard Bars with polyurethane bushings may have grease zerks, or could be drilled and tapped for zerks
Control arms, trailing arms, and panhard bars with factory style rubber bushings won't benefit from grease zerks because the rotation comes from internal torsion in the bushings, and not around a sleeve like with polyurethane bushings
On the topic of lubrication, the replaceable fluids are
- Engine Oil (5w-30)
- Coolant (Toyota SLL Pink or any Red/Pink Asian Vehicle coolant)
- Brake Fluid (DOT 4)
- Power Steering Fluid (Dexron ATF)
- Transmission Fluid (Toyota WS or WS Rated Fluid)
- Front Diff Gear oil (75w-90 or 85w-140)
- Rear Diff Gear Oil (75w-90 or 85w-140)
- Transfer Case Gear Oil (Fancy Toyota LF or SAE 75w or 75w-90)
- Wiper Fluid (if you want to count that lol)
