[Tigers] WARNING - ball joints

[CoolVT at aol.com]

Michael,
This is definitely information worth having.  Who  knows where these parts 
are being made. To me the distributors have some  responsibility to check 
what they are selling or at least to warm buyers that  they need to be 
greased. Apparently the rubber was "real" rubber.  Not sure  why anyone would use 
that any more.  The modern plastics should be cheaper  and would seemingly 
last longer.

True, no  grease ever inside the joints.. maybe just dirt/grit from the
road..  whatever.. as someone else posted, they had the boots crack while in
the  process of resto... im just telling everyone. check.. only takes a
moment..  and if your steering is getting heavier.. well might be  the
problem.
