do you know the axel ends on the front of the jimny theres like 2 ball thing at either end what the wheels turn on
well my question is do these need oil in as mine look rather dry
if so where do you fill them up is it through the cap ontop of the hub area with the 4 13ml bolts in :?:

The swivels contain grease not oil. Normally they should be dry as the lube should be held in by the seals. If or when the seals go the tell tale sign is grease on the inside of your wheel rims. This may also indicate king pin or wheel bearing problems. The only way to properly check that the swivels are greased id
s to strip them down.
