Default Chassis Lube/Service Points & Intervals

Hi Everyone,

I was reading a book today, not really good enough to give a shout-out, and came across this Model T chassis lube point and service interval diagram.

I was wondering if anyone has seen one of these for our flatheads?

I guess I should read the owners manual, huh?

Something like this would be handy if, say you were planning to drive from Maryland to Tahoe and back?

Here's one from a '32 V-8 instruction book (owner's manual).

Here's the maintenance schedule I came up with for my '47. Probably good for '46-'48 and maybe even earlier. And the lubrication chart for those same years.

Thank you for the quick responses gentlemen!

I'll be sure to check my manual when I get close to it.

Prof. Henry, your post is cool because it reminded me of another thing I was reading this week, the first part of the Green Bible. I checked the number on the shock absorber fluid and the stuff in the drawing/photo from the GB is the same number as your chart! What book/manual is your photo from?
