if its fine, then you dont have to, eventually they just start sticking, like after you turn left, your car will drift left, and after you turn right, it will drift right

Not if you install the grease fitting in the provided spot and lubricate it regularly.

crap!!!

well so much for fixing my steering...its now gone again and worse this time. i was driving a pretty curvy road yesterday and i go through a turn and when i come out there is a huge cloud of smoke trailing me, at first i didnt know what it was but when i pulled over and looked underneith it was the shock looking thing. it blew and fluid was spraying all over my headers. so now i have to replace it with a new one im figuring. and maybe the control valve? this really stinks.
