(166 000 km) at the same intervals.
Footnotes
j- The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or the
California Air Resources Board has determined that
the failure
to perform this maintenance item will not
nullify the emission warranty or limit recall liability
prior
to the completion of the vehicle’s useful life.
We, however, urge that all recommended
maintenance services be performed at
the indicated
intervals and the maintenance be recorded.
# Lubricate the front suspension, kingpin bushings,
steering linkage, transmission shift linkage, transfer
case shift linkage, parking brake cable guides, rear
driveline center splines, front axle propshaft splines
and brake pedal springs. Ball joints and kingpin
bushings should not be lubricated unless their
temperature is
10°F (- 12°C) or higher, or they
could be damaged.
