- Important front end maintenance for all Super Duty owners. We have been taking our 2019 F250 to the dealer for oil changes, i don't think they have put grease in the half shafts! We also put full synthetic oil in this engine since new! We recently switched to AMSOIL full synthetic, check it out - • If I DIE my son WILL K...

Many thanks for this video. I forgot where they were and was just under the truck doing an oil change. Like you, I had been taking the truck in for oil changes and decided to do it myself because of the time spent going to get it done and now the cost of gasoline. It's almost 50 miles round trip to the mechanic in my rural area. That's just about $16 of gas in May, 2022.
If you’re not in 4WD, there’s no stress on those u-joints. Also, in 2WD and hubs on Auto, you can turn the u-joints by hand to get the grease fittings in a good, accessible spot.
ahah ! Thanks for the tip on the unlocking the front hubs on my SD. My OBS 7.3 I don't have electric and always unlock to roll highway, but the newer truck is like you said. My truck had front end done over and has fittings everywhere.. But, they put them on upper ball joint and the half shaft makes it impossssssible to go on straight, mabye need a 90degree zerk IDK. Figuring it out.
Okay dude, that's it..I'm a new sub. Been appreciating all your 6.2L content and this one just shows that I need to see what your up to so I can keep my 2022 6.2L in good working order.
🙏 thanks!
Good video, thanks. Really appreciate you taking the time to make this. The Ford dealer said there were no grease fittings, there are!
Yes sir indeed! Very expensive repair if not greased!
Good video of the most overlooked mx on these superduties! I like to pump it thru till the new grease appears ‘cause you never know if there’s water or crap in there!
I went under my 2023 F350 XL STX CC today looking for these; found out that apparently they don't have the zerks anymore. Found a thread on the Ford Trucks forum also that confirmed. I was disappointed; was ready to do some simple maintenance!
Thanks for posting. I did not even know the fittings were there..
Absolutely! Thanks for watching
Very good info Iam about to get an oil change on my 2014 f250 4x4 and definitely going to have them check those grease zerts on my half shafts thx
Zerks!
Crazy how much grease you had to add in order for it too ooze out of the joint. Good thing you got this, otherwise it would be an expensive repair. Only two grease fittings on a C6 Corvette too. Rear link.
Great video!!! Thank you.
2 thumbs up on that Milwaukee grease gun. Brought a couple in for for doing trailer bearings and they rock!!!!
Same...I have the dewalt version. Makes bearings so much faster. I installed a lock and lube coupler on my grease gun as well...one handed operation now.
Excellent very good sir. You and PTT very good for us guys who like to stay out of stealerships
Thanks for the info!
I had no idea. Thank you!
Share the vid.
Thanks dude ! And good quality of video
Thanks
The simplest way to loosen stuck wheels is to relieve the lug nuts about 1/8th inch, turn the front wheel to induce stress, and drive slowly. Works instantly and no damage.
Took my truck in for service too don't know if they Grease the fittings we'll have to look good video thanks
Looks like a fellow michiganders backyard.
My F450 has grease fittings on the tie rods. All total I think there are 9, wish the drive lines had greasable joints.
sealed will last a while
FORD manual suggests a moly grease, not the red grease
Just found frt u joints grease fittings on my 2008 f350, seeing that nothing else (ball joints etc ) had grease nipples, took it for granted that there were no fittings anywhere, just ordered a syringe with fitting for a grease gun to inject grease into rubber on u joints and what ever else it can do, thinking the auto companies want your parts to wear out so they can sell you them, sad , trucks of the old days were lube friendly.
Forgot to mention that after injecting grease into rubber on ball joints etc, use permatex silicone to cover the hole
Thanks , I wasn't aware of this . What grease did you use ? Lucas ?
I don't remember. But I highly recommend amsoil.
NLGI 2 has a good drop point and will be good. Grease works it's way out , even sitting, and even with expensive moly additive or what, u still should be greasing 5-6 pumps every 6 months, couple pumps every 3 months if you really care, and every 5k miles if you drive lots. Our trucks sit, a lot, and we watch the grease slowly drop in level. The expensive grease's only benefit is if you go beyond the needed interval, based on your use, is there is some anti friction modifier that theoretically will help provide some protection, but not grease, and if you really care, make sure there's grease. It's not worth it to buy $6 tubes. Get a good case of Tutela lithium cheap grease NLGI 2 for $2/tube, no need to waste money. Keep a second gun with high temp drop point around for bearings if you have on trailers and what.
What grease fitting gun are you using?
Tip #1: Specify 10k, 15k, 30k, 45k, etc. Service writers create tickets for vehicles and leave the line item as a 10k, instead of the proper 30k or 40k service.
blast the zerk with a shot of ether
works great
Or brake cleaner
I worked at ford and they did not Teach us to grease these. Also they didn’t provide grease guns. I had to have parts order grease and I purchased grease gun. so I can do it for my customers. I would say its hit or miss with getting greased during works package i would request every time you go.
Where I'm at they definitely miss greasing all together for the works package.
Are you using the Milwaukee grease gun?
YES
What do you think this is??
On my 2022 F-250 on driver side fender well and bottom of my drivers door i keep seeing a red grease splashed up u know when u armor all ur tires and it splashes up... why would i have red grease splashed up n around?
Idk 🤔
off u joint on half axle, somewhere spinning when it gets warm
so what grease did you use on the truck??
0:01
What grease did you use? Our old Duramax I used the typical GM Valvoline red stuff but I hate it. In the summers the red stuff runs and thins. My older Ford's I used MolyEP Valvoline. Seems better all the way around and doesn't thin out and run.
Amsoil
Only on superduty? Does the F150 4x4 have that as well?
F-150 does not have this.
F150 has CV joints they don't need greasing
Get a needle greaser and grease those non greaseable parts
Is this zerk only on the alumidutys? I just checked my 2016 and don’t see it....
Idk. My 250 had it... Maybe the 16s didn't have it. Or maybe someone switched out the half shafts?
I’ve got them on my 2011. Also, it doesn’t matter if they are facing out when you go to grease them. If you’re in 2wd and the hubs are unlocked (i.e. auto) the u joint will spin by hand.
All f250/f350s have Greaseable ujoints on the axle half shafts
What type of grease did we require?
I don't know. I use synthetic. Amsoil
What tools did you use to do it
Just a grease gun
Isn't a 250 a medium-duty truck? I don't mean to be a stickler but i think we should be using correct nomenclature.
I believe Med Duty starts at the f650. F250 is still for sure a light truck.
Mine says HD from factory lol Soooo
Mine says super duty 😂
All half ton, 3/4 ton, and 1 ton trucks are all light duty trucks. Even if it says HD, Superduty, has a diesel, etc.
What type of grease does this require?
I don't think it's specified. But I recommend a good full synthetic grease
NLGI 2, read my post above
I would think your Owners Manual would specify ALL greaseable joints. Did you look carefully at driveshaft joints? I would be very upset with your dealer, your joints may fail because of their neglect.
You're right. I think this is something most dealers overlook.
my '00 has replacement joints, or at least zerks added, gotta look around in there
Most genuine Dana u joints are sealed with no grease nipples because the hole weakens the joint, if u joints replaced with weaker aftermarket joints because of grease nipples
They are original
grease zerk never broke on my 2 diesels in 400k, aftermarket zerks tapped in, saves every doing ball joints, front end
If you only took 5 min to read the manual
What kind of grease are you using? The owners manual does a shitty job at explaining
I use amsoil full synthetic grease.
Its either over, or out, never both. Over means your expecting a reply, out means you are done and dont expect a reply. Out.
Over and out sir 🫡
I doubt it was
