Default f-body zerk fittings?

I know from the factory they dont have any, but can you put them in??? I looked in a haynes and it shows putting them in a lower ball joint but nothing about the upper, tierods, etc. Is there a way to put them in? I noticed that the boots have like no grease in them...no leaks, tears, etc. and i only have 10,000 miles on my car...i want to be lube that stuff gm! well now i know what will wear out on my car from all the roadrace like abuse i put on it.

My wife has a '93 TA LT1 car, and it has just two zerks, one on each lower ball joint. Many times when you replace a joint with a MOOG part, it has a zerk where the stock part did not. So I'm just going to replace them with zerk-equipted joints when they wear out. The roadrace abuse is more likely to wear out the front wheel bearings than anything else, and you have to replace the whole hub when that happens to the tune of over $100 each! Time to go for the lifetime warenty parts!
