Im pretty sure the lower ball joints are the only components with grease fittings on them. Unless you have aftermarket parts.

I was told by GM that my high pressure hose was leaking but my fluid level hasn't changed in the past 8 mo since I was told that... I'm lost.

Re: How is your power steering?????
Mine is similiar.. I notice when I back up and turn the wheel, the car is just idling, it has a bit of a "Rough Spot" Also when turning into my driveway which is inclined and I am driving slow, it again exhibits the rouch spot.
Drove my dads Caddy the other day and it made it seem like I dont even have power steering... But from every muscle car I've ever owned I have seen the same... Power steering usually takes a back seat to other performance enhancements..
Oh yeah, I idle at about 700 regardless of whether or not the AC is on.. On cold start generally around 900-1000..
