No doubt, but reachable, and love the trick of twisting the drive shaft to disengage the grease gun fitting!

Glad I spotted your video. I have a 2018 LC and a 2021 GX. Already have the jack and a grease gun so I'll be picking up some jack stands and grease cartridges and attacking this myself.

I’ve heard the slip yokes could bind if you over grease them? I saw another video where they greased the slip yokes then after putting vehicle on ground they loosened the zirc and used the AHC to drop the vehicle to let any extra grease squirt out.

I start my 460 and spin the tires to look for vibrations. Found a tire out of balance. I grease mine every other oil change. chuck

I am going to get on that schedule as I am hoping mine goes over 500K without major issues.

Thank you for this video! I have the same vehicle. Is it just me, or does your LX also seem to wander over the road? I have new tires, alignment the whole 9 yards. Is it because of the hydraulic suspension? It has always been that way. I'm just curious to know if that is just the way this vehicle drives. The steering seems to follow every little dip in the road surface.
@OGDIY-itseasy4 ай бұрын
Apologies for the delay, I would want to compare with other vehicles as all my vehicles can wander a bit based on road crown, imperfections, etc, and my LX drives similarly. I am not a pro at diagnosis, but has yours had the ball joints checked or has it ever been in a front end accident? For mine, I could not attribute any wandering to hydraulics, mine is well planted.
@natcoziay4 ай бұрын
Thanks for your response. No I haven't had the ball joints checked and there hasn't been any front end collisions. I will start with having the ball joints checked out. Thank you!

What grease you using? I saw red on one sitting then I noticed you adding a white grease
@OGDIY-itseasy24 күн бұрын
Sorry, slow reply, my memory is white lithium marine grease as it was rated better for wear and somewhat water resistant.

Hydraulic?
@2URLex2 ай бұрын
Yes LX suv has always had the Hydraulic suspension. The GX always got air suspension.
