Where are the 8 zirks on the 98? Also, anyone know of any good tear-down
manuals for the 98 4x4?

Hey that brings me to a question I've been meaning to ask for a few weeks!
 WHERE THE HECK ARE THE ZIRKS!!! did they get rid of em in my truck or
something? I've looked everywhere, U-joints, ball joints, I can't find
one stinkin' zirk! Anybody else with a 00 out there know where they are?
In my owners manual it gives recommended intervals and grease type and
stuff so I'm betting they do exist, I just can't find the darn things!!!

>Keep in mind there are
>like 8 zirks on the '98s that should be greased regularly, so don't just
>do the
>lower ball joints.
