Yes, I did do a search, maybe I missed it. How OFTEN are you greasing the front drive shaft fitting??? Every 15K with the oil change? I do oil changes every 7500 and have the dealer do the grease fitting. SOmetimes they say it needed it, others times they say it wouldnt take any grease. Thanks!
How often for Drive shaft fitting?

I grease mine per the manual - it is it's own item in there. If it won't take grease they didn't do it right as there's nothing stopping the grease from going out.

Thanks in advance

Not as critical with the axle disconnect on the 4gen as it was with a third gen. In theory the drive shaft shouldn't be turning unless you are in 4wd.
