[s-cars] Creeeeak, creeeeeak, creeeeeeak -Tired of those

That's why I didn't drill it for a grease fitting, Rolf. The hole I drilled
is about 1/16" in diameter, which isn't going to significantly weaken the
joint.
You gotta do what make you comfortable, though.

I'll tell ya, you need to be very careful with this procedure. You are
drilling out metal that wasn't designed, nor can tolerate modifications. If
you live in the mid west where this are no potholes, then you may be OK. I
would never do this on my car for the fact that you have now weakend a
critical suspension component. I beleive there is a way to pry open the boot
to apply the grease on the original ones, but on aftermarket I don't know.
I'd rather have a little noise than have a wheel ready to fall off. Just my
02.
