Review on πŸ”© Lumax LX-1416 18G 1-1/2" Silver Stainless Steel Grease Injector Needle with Cap - Perfect for Precise Lubrication in Compact Areas such as Sealed Bearings and Universal Joints by Omar Svagera

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ideal for suspension lubrication.

the replacement ball joint on my jeep was not lubricated and the mechanic forgot something but it started squeaking a few months after installation, there was no plug to lubricate so i have a video on it found youtube where they used a needle to inject grease through the plastic, this one works fine, the puncture is not so big that it damages the plastic and you can fill the hinge ball with grease, the noise went away immediately. If you do this I recommend checking your joint for damage from time to time, so far mine is perfect. The other one, also replaced a year earlier, had a broken plastic cover and I didn't do anything to it, so I have to replace it before the one I lubricated.

Pros
  • good thing
Cons
  • good but not great
