How do i grease a ball joint on a 96 Honda Civic DX D16Y7

[elpescado16]

On the driver side of the car, i started to hear some sqeaking when i go over little bumps. I took it to a wheel shop and they told me that the ball joint might need grease. I was wondering is there a cheap way i can do that? I live in New York and everything is expensive here, plus i love to work on my car. What type of grease would i need? Could i get it from Auto Zone? O would it be better to just get one from a junk yard? Include pictures and diagrams if possible? Thank you

Go to autozone and tell them u need to grease balljoints and they will get you hooked up

Thanks bro I know this might be off topic but my muffler has a 2 little rust holes in the back of the muffler. Should i paste it up with some exhaust puddy that they sell at AutoZone or just get a new muffler in general?

Get a new muffler

You also might want to check the shocks/struts and whether the wheel splash guard is bent and rubbing on the brake rotor.

If the ball joints are really squeaking, I'd recommend that you just replace them.

I just replaced my ball joints. Bought some with grease fittings so I can just use a grease gun to lube them on up ^_^

Did the noise go away because the control arm bushings will also cause that same kindof noise just fyi
