Hi,

When replacing my upper control arm bushings I found that my uca ball joint rubber boots on each side were cracked pretty bad. The ball joints themselves are not loose and look really clean. I've gotten new rubber boots but want to pack the boots full of grease before I put them on. What kind of grease would you guys recommend? I was thinking of getting the mobil 1 synthetic grease in the can, or would just old multipurpose grease cartridge work?

thanks,
jamieC

if its the red mobil one it has some anti seize built in and is water resistant so I would use it.
