Default Chassis Lube Schedule

I'm doing the final instal of my fender today and i noticed that the zerk fittings on my RF suspension are covered in dirt.... and i think the bushing on the tie rod is too far gone, but when is this thing suposed to be lubed? And can I use regular lube grease or do i need a special thing?

The lube schedule is in your owner'* manual. Mine gets lubed at every oil change. All fittings. Any regular automotive grease will do. Clean the zerk off first.

Oh jeez, I've never requested my chassis be lubed or even had it mentioned to me in the last three and a half years. I suppose it should be done, right?
