Front End Lubrication

[Kipp]

I Have A 1996 Explorre Xlt. There Are No Grease Fitting On The Front End That I Can See... The Vehicle Has 153000 Miles . Does The Front End Need Lub And If So Whats The Best Way To Do It?? I Am Starting To Get Some Front End Clunjking Over Bumps.
Thanks

Nope, no lubrication on the front axle needed besides changing the differential fluid. The clunking could be several things. Your ball joints could be going bad (Explorers are notorious for crappy ball joints), you sway bar ends could be going bad, or your torsion bar isolator pads could be worn through....

In addition to the above your shock bushings could be worn out cracked and or missing.
