Default Grease Fittings

Are there any grease fittings I need to get while I'm changing my oil? I looked in the manual and looked under the truck last time I change the oil and didn't see any, but that doesn't mean there aren't any.

Last time I've seen this discussion, I believe the answer was there are none. Might call the dealership and ask the garage to make sure though.

There are none. Ford has a better idea!

I don't recall any Ford truck ever having back to my '92 and before unless you replaced a component

My '01 had a few on the steering linkage.

I have to say I hate the general (general as in covers all of the vehicles Ford makes) maintanence guides that come with the owner's manual. I bought the service manual on DVD hoping it would give more specific maintanence info, but it is the same general stuff.

Basically a simple maintanence guide or checklist that is specific to the F150. For example here is one for my motorcycle: http://www.triumph.co.uk/media/RocketIII(2).pdf

My 08 F250 has two. Front u-joints by the hubs, I haven't found any on the F150.
