Ok, figure i work on the blasty today, get the new wheel bearings in check all the balljoints/tierods grease them all up and start fresh! I couldn't do a vid, so I took pics! Haven't ever heard of anyone actually refilling them I think it's pretty important to do if you are doing a rebuild or complete teardown especially if ya ride in water and soupy mud alot! Took me literally after disassembled 20 minutes that included changing a boot that had a tear in it.
This is the tools to do it grease gun and needle adapter can be found at any harware or auto shop place-
Start with a colapsed boot check for tears or holes, all good-
Take the needle adapter slide it between the boot lip and the steel stud being careful not to push too hard and push the needle through the boot!-
It took me two and a half pumps- I pump until i see some old/new mixed grease come out that way i know there is fresh stuff all in there
Now this is what it looks like full! Much better!-
Then I take my finger and push at a downwards motion all around the boot to expel any air stuck in the boot, rotate the stud 360 degrees and work the new grease in the joint, wipe off any excess with a rag and ready to go!
This shows the tierod on on the right is empty, one on the left is full!
