wonder how long it'll go before i need to address that crap...
Most of my balljoint boots are ripped and leaking grease. I just couldn't get the nut back on the balljoint because it spun with the nut, so I had no choice but to replace it. I would assume that this will be the case for you. I picked up a full replacement with boot for $24 at autozone, so the price isn't bad, just getting it out to replace it.
