chassis lube on 4th gen?
Everyone advertises: Oil, Lube, & Filter change. Is there even anything to lube on an LS1 f-body?

I think everything comes from the factory with "lubed for life" items. Some aftermarket replacement parts will have zerk fittings on them for lubrication.

Lubed for Life.

Means that when you replace it and it has Zerk fittings, you can lube it. I hate lubed for life. Dumb.....good for leased vehicles....
