Although I've completed the V112 on JJD 383K (GT6 Mk3), I still get my local garage to do an annual MOT style checkup just to be sure, and they tell me that my OSF track rod end is showing signs of wear.
No problem I thought, I'll swap both sides out for a nice shiny new set, but this is where I got a bit confused 😕.
Rimmers have GSJ158 Track Rod End - Non Greasable
Canley Classics show GSJ158 TRACK ROD END
and 106468 TRACK ROD END - INCLUDING GREASE NIPPLE
and James Paddock stock TRACK ROD END GREASABLE(GSJ158G)
Looking at the diagrams/pictures on Canley Classics and James Paddock respectively it seems the original ones were probably ungreased, certainly the current ones on JJD have no grease nipple I can find.
So my question is - is greased better (for longevity etc) than non-greased, or is it one of those personal preference things.
Thanks
Rob
