How many different lube points/grease fittings are there on a 4Runner ('98 to be specific), and where are they? As you can tell, its something I haven't done myself but I'd like to. No sense in taking somewhere to have it done as part of an oil change when you can do it yourself, right?

Any other pointers would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Tom

 

I'm going from memory here, I just greased mine a couple weeks ago.


One fitting for each driveline at the slip-joint (2 total-takes a lot of grease)

I think there were five fittings at the u-joints, front and rear drive lines combined. Don't over grease these, stop when you first see grease emerge.

Don't forget to check the gear boxes, and differentials, top hole, use your little pinkey for a dipstick
