I have done some extensive searching on this site about the lube points on the chassis and suspension but have come up short. I found one thread that look promising but quickly went off topic with lots of "lube" innuendo. I have purchased some 3M wet silicone type lube and would like to know where I should apply this. Pictures would obviously be ideal and any advice on the application procedure. Thanks!

 

I'm not aware of any chasis lube zerc fittings, if that is what you are looking for. If you do find some, probably a NGLI 2 general purpose grease would be appropriate to use.

Here is an old post by the iconic Road Rage that addresses the issue:

when i worked at honda, the only thing/place i lubed during maintinence services were: door hinges, hood latch, hood hinge........ thats all i can remember right now

 

i lube ALL rubber bushings with NON petrol based silicone !

 

The most important chassis parts that need lubrication - or better: anti seize! - are out of reach: the alignment bolts.
Unfortunately

Its not a bad thing to keep rubber boots "lubed" with silicone, but on my MY'00, daily driven in all kinds of weather including salty roads, not 1 rubber boot has failed on me yet.

 

ya, i also keep anti seize on the front and rear subframe bolts !!

 

Is there any cleaning procedure before applying lube? I have really never done this before and not entirely sure what I should be looking for.

 

just wipe of anything that's dirty.

I also recommend keeping all rubber "wet" as much as you can.

This is especially important for hotter than fawk states like AZ. Rubber is the first thing that will start to go brittle otherwise. It will fall apart when it dries up.
