Hey all. Just crawled out from under the 97 ST. Was fixing the trailer light wiring that had corroded away under the previous owners watch. I figured while I was down there I would grease the ball joints and other steering fittings. But there aren't any grease fittings anywhere. The owner's manual says to grease them every 15,000 miles. What gives?
 
Think that advice is left over from when Ford parts used to install grease zerks on suspension pieces. Only zerks you see know are on the replacement parts (Moog, etc.) that you buy to repair failures due to...yep, you guessed it - lack of grease in the Ford part.
