Few questions with ball joint dust boots.

[nick7405]

When greasing the joints while ago I blew out one lower and one upper on opposite sides. I ordered the energy suspension dust boots and have the following questions.

1. Picture below has the new boot installed on the upper hower the when looking from behind the boot doesn't sit nicely on the lip. Cam someone chime in with this please.

2. Can I use the other bigger boots for lowers that came in the kit?

That has already been answered in your other post.
One solution is to stop over greasing

Regards to over greasing, instructions say grease until it comes out.... am I missing something?

I was taught to add grease just till the boot swells. That way it’s under pressure and water can’t get in.

Thanks guys, guess I'll just torque down everything and see how it works.
