While greasing my ball joints located atop the vertical link (and if viewing
the backside w/ a mirror) I could see ribbons of grease escaping at the bottom
of the new rubber boot.  The vertical link squishes the rubber tight on the
outside, but a wide angle on the inside.  They look installed tight and grab
correctly where they should.  Unfortunately, this proably happens regardless
of front wheel direction.  I'm thinking it's unavoidable...-right?
