I don't think there are any grease fittings.
I use 'Prolong' brand, spray synthetic penetrating grease. It goes right in
there.
It even goes right past the seals on sealed bearings, great stuff ! 

Motorcycle chain lube is also very very good since it's formulated to
penetrate into rollers and tiny spots, and then stick.  That works extra
good too.  

( So glad someone is fussing over lubing all the little parts that move.
Right on !  
If you ever sell your vanagon, likely whoever gets it will be getting a very
well cared for van. ) 
Actually.............'thank you' for caring for one of the world's wonderful
vanagons.

Subject: regrease steering U-joint?

I got the old, leaky steering rack out of my '91 GL tonight, the
worst part was separating the rack from the U-joint.  I used a cold
chisel as a wedge to spread the clamping part of the joint enough
that I could pound it off the splined shaft with a hammer.  I decided
to remove the joint as well, since it was caked in dried out, dirty
grease.

Can the U-joint be cleaned and re-greased?  I don't see any grease
fittings on it but have not cleaned it yet so they may be buried.
