Where's The Grease

[jakebrake]

well I had a 2018 3500 Laramie with 4X4. I did in fact purchase the needle fitting for my grease gun and did use it on the " hidden fitting " in the front Ujoint. Easy job you need to do every time you change the oil. Fast forward to this week.

My new 2019 3500 Longhorn 4X4 was waiting to be stuck with my needle for some lube. I LOOKED FOR TEN MINUTES. Just wanted to make sure I hadn't lost it.

DID NOT SEE IT. The fitting that is. -------------------- So I guess Ram did away with the fitting in the 2019. Any input. Thanks

Could they all be sealed joints?

My 2018 had a sticker under the hood reminding you to grease that joint. Does your 19 have that sticker?

New style joint on the 19+ no need to grease.

Awesome! Wasn't my favorite thing to do

Yep, no sticker under the hood and apparently a no-grease sealed unit.

Hopefully technology has advanced enough so we won't have premature failure

I thought I saw with the 2019+ it does not spin all the time when the vehicle is in motion in 2wd therefore no specified service interval.

Front prop shaft has integral CV joint on t case mating end. Great thing!
