Good lube for door hinges?
 

What's good to use to lube door hinges? My XJ driver's side door hinges are
squeaking noticeably. Is there some sort of zerk fitting you're supposed to
install?

no zerks, I just use a good silicon spray lube.

Chrysler yanked ten cents per wagon, long ago. I just use my
regular oil can filled with whatever motor oil I'm using. stuff a bunch
of rags around the hinges to soak up the excess, then clean the dust
that collects from time to time. I used to have a can of bicycle chain
oil that was easy to use, but I think that went the way of CFCs.

Just spray them with a heavy application of a white lithium grease-based
aerosol lube which will penetrate well and hang around long enough to
make it worth your while. Avoid WD-40 which will rinse out what little
lube remains and replace with a very poor excuse for a lubricant that
evaporates within a few days.
