SPC UCA balljoint grease

[jonb2]

Hi. Just installed SPC UCA into 2007 4runner. Little confused on the balljoint greasing procedure. SPC says it comes with a little grease already from the factory.

1. Do you need to add any grease upon installation?

2. When you do grease, how much to add? Enough so that grease comes out of relief hole?

I know I added some grease after installation of the UCA but it seems like hardly anything is going in and I see no bulging of the boot or grease coming out? thanks!

I didn't think there was much grease in there when I got mine so I added more. Something with molybdenum. 5-10 pumps and you should start seeing the boot bulge a little bit, STOP there. Any extra over that and you'll notice is just splooging out of the boot after a good workout anyway. Regrease every 5k miles or after a run where you may have worked some muddy water/debris into them but that's rare.
