Hi Dondi,

There unfortunately isn't a grease zerk so you'd have to just remove the bushing brackets for the Hellwig # HE56FR and grease them by hand with a premium heavy-duty NLGI #2 lithium or synthetic grease. After installation, steering and suspension parts should be greased at each oil change for heavy-duty vehicles and at every tire rotation for standard-duty vehicles.

The Hellwig sway bar part #HE56FR is a fit for your 2019 Chevy Silverado 2500HD that does does not have a factory bar and would not interfere with your B and W Turnoverball gooseneck either.
