Thanks for the video. I'm about to install a Yeti HD on my JKU!. This is replacing a Rock Kralwer that is binding with the inside of my new rims.

I just installed my tie rod and drag link today and kinda wished I would have watched this first. I think the greasing of the boots is key, and of course I didn't do it. Speaking of grease, do I need to grease them after they are installed? If so, how much grease do I need to put in them?

[@SteerSmarts]

Putting grease in the joints is a good thing. Put 5-6 pumps in each joint. Just make sure that the boot seal starts to fill up. You can't overfill as they are self purge boot seals and will purge excess grease.
