Went to grease 87 4x4 only saw 5 zerk fittings?

All together I only saw 5 zerk fittings.

3 on the left front and 2 on the right front which one of those was a zerk on what I guess is the front u joint to the 4x4 diff.

the ball joints look to be sealed on both upper and lower..

am I missing any?

Took another look still only see 5 zerks.

2 on the pitman arm rod one on the steering box end and one on the other.

2 (one on each side) of the I guess it's called tie rod? that stretches from one side to the other

and 1 on the u joint SHAFT just beside the joint where it connects to the front diff.


anymore?
