    Caravan roller rocker suspension maintenance

    Am I right in thinking there are only 3 grease nipples per side?
    one in the centre arm pin,
    one in each leaf loop pin?

    any recommendations on grease type?
    the loop is pretty much just red/brown muck... any real use in cleaning it before regreasing?

    May only be the three you can see Pedro. Some suspensions have non greaseable pins, others have a nylon type bush.
    Any good grease should suffice, a couple of pumps frequently is best ,and all that dirty old grease that has come out....an old petrol soaked shirt will clean that up. ( Then put said shirt in boot of van for next time, then in six weeks time find it and wonder why is this stinkin old shirt in the boot)

    Note to Future Pedro--- Carry spare 90deg grease nipples

    How the last guy greased all the linkage points is beyond me,, 3 out of 6 were clogged/stuck.
