I just replaced both inner and outer tie rod ends, along with other front end stuff. I noticed the Haynes manual stated to add grease within the boot of the inner tie rod end. There was no grease in the original boot, nor too much on the tie rod end itself. Probably enough for lubrication as required, but no more. My question is should I add more grease than what is already on the ball joint?
