Front Prop Shaft Lubrication — 2500/3500 (4X4)
Models
Lubricate the front driveshaft grease fitting at each oil
change listed in the appropriate Maintenance Schedule
for your vehicle. Use Mopart type MS-6560 (lithium
based grease), or equivalent.
Body Lubrication
Locks and all body pivot points, including such items as
seat tracks, doors, liftgate, tailgate, sliding doors and
hood hinges, should be lubricated periodically to assure
quiet, easy operation and to protect against rust and
wear. Prior to the application of any lubricant, the parts
concerned should be wiped clean to remove dust and
grit; after lubricating excess oil and grease should be
removed. Particular attention should also be given to
hood latching components to insure proper function.
When performing other underhood services, the hood
latch, release mechanism and safety catch should be
cleaned and lubricated. The external lock cylinders
should be lubricated twice a year, preferably in the fall
and spring. Apply a small amount of a high quality
lubricant such as Mopart Lock Cylinder Lubricant di-
rectly into the lock cylinder.
