Hidden grease fitting ???

[Seasparrow]

So I was watching a video of a guy replacing bushing blocks on a 4th Gen and when he removes the skid plate I see a zirk fitting on the lower control arm. I was under the impression we had none except propeller shafts.

1 min. 25 seconds into the video.

This must be aftermarket with that red bushing showing.....

OK yes, I was to lazy to go out and drop my skid plate,
and it's raining.

What is a "bushing block" also yes they are aftermarket.

Looks like an aftermarket poly bushing. Poly bushings are a lot harder than rubber and require greasing every so often to stay quiet/workable. Rubber usually doesn't.
