Need a little more info, are you regreasing CVs on axles as well?

What all do you want to grease?

Well, I want to grease everything that needs greased... I thought most Honda's by the 90's where sealed by the factory and never needed grease.

last time I checked... hondas had sealed chassis. At least by the early 90's... I've worked at Jiffy Lube, Express Lube, and now Midas, and have never once greased a honda chassis.... I'm aboout 99% sure you can't do it.

If it is squeeking, I'd suggest looking at your bushings, and possibly upgrading to polyeurathane (one of my many soon to come mods).

There are no Zirc, or other "lube" fittings anywhere on the 3rd Gen Integra. The only thing for you to grease are the door hinges, and even those can go without it just fine.

The CV's, Balljoints, Tierods, etc are all sealed and should be replaced if the boot is cracked (you should wash and keep them clean to help prolong life).

Correct.

If you want to squirt a little silicone/lithium lube on your bushings and such it will help with squeeeeks a little bit.

Where i live when it rains the streets flood to like 6 inches and i have to get to work. I wish i had a beater but i dont. After the rains my car always squeeks from the dirt and water and residue. I blast them all out with the hose, regrease/spray-lube and it is good as new... almost...

Friggen San Fernando Valley Streets, its almost like New Orleans sometimes. Well, not really, sorry bad joke.

FYI Apparently White Lithium Grease doesn't mix with aftermarket Silicone (ES, etc.) bushings.

Normal rubber should be fine.
