Are there any Zerk fittings on a 2nd Gen ranger?

I don't think i've seen any mention of routine greasing this truck anywhere and I feel like i've missed something. Is there really nothing to grease gun on this thing?

From the factory all the ball joints and tie rod ends were sealed without zerks... by this time I would imagine at least some of those components would have been changed but it's a crapshoot if they would have been replaced with greasable units... If I remember right the balljoints would have the zerks on the bottom (IE one just above the bottom of the wheel and the other next to the U joint), the rest would be on the caps of the steering joints.
