or
can you go a few 1000 miles more since highways have come a long ways in the last 60 years?"Maybe yes, or, maybe yes. I do it it every couple thousand miles, or, every year in the early Spring. It takes about 15 minutes by me, or by a good Shop. Most Shops do not know the grease points, especially brake pedal shaft. http://chevy.oldcarmanualproject.com/shop/1954truck/54ctsm0009.html | | | | | Joined: Dec 2008 Posts: 899 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2008 Posts: 899 | I grease mine once a year also. I put about 2000-2500 miles a year on it. I also have a grease point on my clutch pedal shaft.
