I started getting an odd groan or internal rubbing sound when turning my wheels while stationary especially in reverse, hope my kingpins aren't shot! Strangely enough this seemed to happen only AFTER I greased them, perhaps I used the wrong grease? I've also noticed some noise over bumps. I'm strongly suspecting the grease and will try re-packing with mobil 1 soon.
I have an extension for my grease gun to reach places with limited access. I made it from a 12" piece of 1/4" brake tubing and fittings. Makes things much easier.
